"Hey, look that says book!"


Hallelujah... He can see! We've known for a while that Luke really can't see. Little hints like standing directly in front of the T.V. Saying 'I can't see' all the time. His pre-school teacher telling me he can't see. Trying to wear my glasses to watch movies. Last Sunday he had his primary program and his teacher kept trying to point him to where we were so he could see us. And we even scooted up towards the front of the chapel that week. So you get the picture, anyone around him for more than a minute knew he couldn't see. We took him to the eye Dr. in January, he said Luke was fine and not to worry... well I knew that wasn't the case, so I took him to a new Dr. this last week, he did great with Luke, and Luke was so excited to look in the binoculars, he did a really good job. He got to pick out his glasses, and he was really excited to wear them. On our way home from picking up his glasses Luke was looking out the window, there was a big sign that said Seagull Book, and Luke could see Book. He's so happy that he can see. He keeps telling me 'I can see that' , pointing to something.

He looks so handsome and grown up. I am glad that he can see. There is nothing worse than everything being blurry!

How fun for Luke to finally be able to see! He sure looks handsome ;0) The story of him reminds me of a little boy that came into our office and after he put on his glasses for the first time, looked at his mom for a long time and finally "Hi mommy" like he was seeing her for the first time! Good luck.

He looks GREAT in his glasses!!! So grown up....I am glad that you went to a different doctor. The first one sounds like he didn't know much.

Great choice in picking out the best looking glasses!. It's amazing how grown up a pair of glasses makes one.

You guys have sure had a lot going on. I am so glad your kids are loving all their new space. Backyards are the best...I am jealous of your fence! Luke is one good-looking young man.
