We took the kids to have their eyes checked tonight. There were really no reasons why, other than it had been awhile since we had checked them, years ago.
I was most concerned for the girls. They get headaches often. Mostly light induced, migraines for Alli, and light induced non-migraines for Emma.
Anyway, surprise, surprise...Philips eyes were the worst. They are not bad by any means. All the kids are far sighted. They all have 20/20 vision. They do need reading glasses though. Philip as I said, needed them the most. It really shocked me, and him. He was a bit of a pain in the neck about it...not wanting to pick out frames. :) Such a guy. I tried to tell him he only has to wear them when he is studying or reading, and then at night when he starts driving...in 2 years. Allison only needs them when doing the same things as well. Emma's aren't bad enough to need anything at all. So overall good news. They are taking after their Mama. :) I am far sighted, and only need glasses for reading.
Next up, dentist appointments for the entire lot of us. :) That and the orthodontist that we seem to frequent.
Thankful for great insurance!

mommy blogger. As a mother that has suffered the loss of multiple children while becoming a mother of the bride to our oldest, raising 2 young adults, an 8 year old preemie and a 6 year old tornado, I have a lot to share. I can't guarantee you will agree with everything I say, but I think you may just enjoy it. This is our life, the good, bad and ugly.
