They just don't come cuter than that, do they? Our Harrison's glasses arrived today. We learned a few weeks ago that Harrison's right eye was not working as it should. Last week he saw our Pediatric Opthamologist, who ordered the glasses. Harrison will wear these for the next two weeks, then begin eye therapy with a patch. He'll most likely wear the patch for about a year. That was a bit of sad news for Har, but he is such a good sport. Tonight we looked at patches online and he found one with flames. He thought that might be alright to wear. :)
After trying on his glasses, (in all seriousness) he said, "Mommy, you don't look like an impressionistic painting anymore. Now you look like a bobble head." Well. Surely it will take time for his eyes to adjust to the glasses! :)
Say a prayer for our little man. It's going to be a period of adjustment with the new look, new feel and new therapy. I'm thankful that he's such a cool kid about things like that. Even when he was frustrated because the chart with letters just looked like a white screen to him, he was a good sport. He looked at the doctor and said, "Well, it's okay if I can't see out of this eye. At least I have the other one." May we all be that optimistic.

...but Harrison is so cute WITH those glasses!
Ah, I will definitely pray for you guys. I do know the mommy heart we have been given for our little ones who have a bit more to bear in their precious little lives. I have been thinking about you off and on today and I just want for you to know that in all you have experienced in the recent years - and with the awesome load you continue to manage - I am so, so proud of you. God has blessed my life with you and I am ever touched by your gracious spirit and your kind, kind heart. Christ is pouring forth from you and I, as a part of the audience, am blessed beyond measure to be able to witness God's handiwork in your beautiful life. Love you, Friend.
