I can see clearly now....





This story begins with an incident that happened a few months ago. Benjamin use to call glasses or sunglasses "eyes". It was a Sunday morning and Benjamin came into our room early, very early and decided to wake up his daddy. What we didn't know/realize was that Benjamin was playing in our room for a while with Dave's glasses. After Benjamin convinced daddy to get up and put his eyes on. Dave went to put on his glasses only to discover that they had been broken. So, for the last few months Dave has been wearing his contacts and not his glasses (he can get new glasses within the next couple of months as his Insurance allows new frames every two years and this would be the two year mark). Dave assured me that he was up for renewal a month after the incident but I am convinced that he is up for renewal this fall--either way it is too bad it isn't sooner!). Benjamin idolizes his daddy and likes to do whatever he does. Well one morning I discovered Benjamin putting in "his" contacts. It was priceless! Dave had already put in his contacts for the day. Benjamin said it was his turn and he got out the contact solution and put some into the contact case. He then proceeded to dip his finger into the saline solution and put his finger in (near) his eye putting in his contacts. Every so often he would check that they were in his eyes by taking a closer look in the mirror.
