A Mo Update

Haven't done one of these in a while so thought I 'd add a picture of both kids. A trip to the eye doctor discovered Mo needs glasses. He picked out some very stylish, (read: expensive glass frames).

In all things Mo there is humor. So here is his eye appointment. His school teaches words and letters a bit differently so he wasn't able to use the normal eye chart. Not to weird for the office to deal with, so they upload the symbols. The assistant asks, "What do you see? (On this line is a teddy bear and a man). Mo begins to tell this elaborate story about a dragon chasing a man and the man hides in a cave but the dragon breathes fire into the cave, the man runs out and the dragon eats him. This goes on a couple more times until the assistant levels the room and mommy explains how the test works.

In the end, he needs the glasses.

Its been over 100 degrees the last several days so we have been spending a lot of time in the backyard pool. Getting it ready for summer mostly but getting in several hours of playing. Mo loves to swim, not the best at it but he sure does try hard. Mistress and Mae haven't been in yet but that will happen this week.


Mo, Mae, DanBear

Great story! Claudia has glasses, too. She had the symbol test as well, but on her test were a couple of objects including a old-fashioned telephone with the dial on it. Having only ever seen a cell phone, she referred to it as a "taxicab".
