The Brain of the Family

Our little Sydney just got her new pink Disney glasses a week ago. She tossed them out of her stroller the 2nd day we got them and I was in a panic looking up and down each aisle at Michael's Craft store. There goes $200+, I thought to myself... I finally found them on the floor near some Christmas trim. I doubt if anyone who saw them would have turned them in to the lost and found, cuz they look so much like a pair of dress up glasses you would put on a teddy bear.

I was at Costco the next day having lunch with the kids (yes, very nutritious....but oh so cheap!) and a lady sitting next to us asked how in the world can they tell what strength her prescription needs to be. And since then, I've been stopped and asked the same thing by a half a dozen strangers. So here's the scoop: The pediatric opthamologist we take Sydney to, dialates her pupils, then takes small lenses and looks through her eyes with a light. And voila! We asked our optometrist friend Darren Lee, and he said they are fairly accurate. Amazing!

So here's our little Synister (as daddy likes to call her) having some fun at the Apple store looking very brainy. I think she looks like a cute little old lady.
