Ally got glasses

Ya now how mother's have that "motherly sense"? well mine kicked in overdrive with Ally a few weeks ago and I decided that we should probably get Ally into see the eye doctor. John agreed and a couple of weeks ago I took her in with me for mine. When she saw the machines that they used she got a little scared so I went first and showed her how they worked.
They have one that puts a pouffe of air in your eye, I can't do that, I have tried it doesn't work and they have that noted (my eye is just a wussy), but Ally did it like a champ! So we did the beginning part and then it was time to go in with the doctor.

They had to put drops in my eyes to dilate them and I showed Ally what that meant. After my appointment the doctor got Ally into the chair and did the same routine with her, dilation and all. Come to find out Ally is "EXTREMELY" far sided and has a astigmatism. No kidding! The doctor asked why I thought Ally needed to come in and I said it was just an inkling I had.

So Ally has glasses and looks really cute with them on. Tonight we had our first homework assignment since getting them, she got them on Friday, and she read through it all with out a hitch! I am so happy, she seemed to have a great day today and she said she can read better now.

'till later
