Specs

We received a notice from school right before the Winter break that Lincoln had failed his eye exam and that we needed to take him to an eye doctor.  Lincoln had failed the eye exam at his 5 year well check, but I thought he was nervous/distracted.  He ran around just fine, he knew his letters and numbers, and could write his name and was doing great in Kindergarten. I thought he was just nervous/distracted again.  But we made an apt with Shawn's eye doctor....Well.....it  turns out that Lincoln has a pretty strong astigmatism and is far sighted just like Shawn. He has been straining his eyes to see the board at school and read his sight words at night with us.

He was excited to pick out glasses and be just like Shawn.  Getting glasses and wearing them all day everyday has been an adjustment, but he is finally getting used to them.
