Wednesday
afternoon, I checked her out of school early and we paid a visit to the eye
doctor and got contacts! She is so excited and for once cannot stop thanking
me. It took her a really long time to get those buggers in the first time but
every time after has gone a little faster. {I feel her pain. I have had to
learn to put in 3 different types of contacts all of which took me an obscene
amount of time to get the hang of!}
She played a
futsal {one type of indoor soccer} game last night and said that they really
helped. She did okay scoring 1 of the 2 goals their team made to propel them to
victory. {of course the other team only had 3 members show up and we lent them
a couple of girls, so it was really more like a scrimmage}
She went back to
the eye doc this morning so he could check the fit. Everything looked great so
we ordered a year supply. He recommends the dailies for kids her age so I
shelled out the dollars and told her that we were taking back her Christmas
presents. I was kidding, a little bit.
I think she looks fantastic with or without glasses
but she seems to be thrilled to pieces about the contacts. And it is nice to get
some Mom currency I might be able to use later. ;)
