Kael's Glasses

When Kael was screened for Kindergarten he failed his eye test so we took him to the eye doctor who confirmed that he needed glasses. After several attempts to find the "right" pair we finally ordered some orange miraflex ones. He was bound and determined to have orange glasses and was NOT going to change his mind. Of course, the eye doctor didn't have any in stock and as we were watching him try some others on we feared for the glasses. He was not kind or careful and wouldn't not lend to advice given to him. Miraflex are not easily breakable and are made of a flexible material that lend really well to kids. We looked through catalogs and hardly found any orange, but happened upon one pair that was the right color and size and we prayed. When they came in I was a little scared to take him in to get them. He has worn them with not much prompting or fighting! I was shocked! His first response when he had them on was that rocks look cool with glasses. I don't know that he really knew what rocks looked like before. Poor guy!
