Morgan is officially old.  And blind.  Well actually she really isn’t either of those things but she is definitely growing up and somewhat visually challenged.  She has been wearing glasses for one full year now and I promised her at that time she could give contacts a try.  Here we are at that day and look at how grown up she is learning how to put in contacts!

Even though she really likes the look of her glasses and her prescription hasn’t changed, she is hoping this change will help her in soccer actually see the other players on the field. Seems like a very valid reason to me!!  Perhaps it’s worth the $300-400 it takes to buy a years’ worth of daily contacts!?  I should really consider getting a part-time job.

The other reason she is excited about this change is she can now wear mascara.  ugh…see what I mean…she’s growing up!  Her lashes are too long and hit her glasses lenses with mascara on…oh wow what a difficult problem to have.  I think I speak for many when I say, I would never complain of having ultra long lashes.  Most of us girls would kill for them!  In glasses or contacts, Morgan, you are absolutely beautiful and I am super excited for you!  XOXO, Mom
