Hello! It’s been a long time since my last post here on Little Four Eyes, but I guess that’s a good thing because it means nothing new has happened with Franklin’s glasses. Neither pair of glasses has been in need of care in the past few months, we haven’t had any meaningful conversations about wearingContinue reading “Pre-School”

More on Costco
Happy last day of June! I’m back from picking up Franklin’s SpongeBob glasses at Costco and have a report: Costco is gearing up for the school year (as I’m sure many places are), so their selection of children’s glasses is really good right now. I saw many styles to choose from and many more smallerContinue reading “More on Costco”
Just when a person starts to relax…
About a week ago now, Franklin came home with the weirdest glasses-related wound I’ve ever seen (look under his left eye). Apparently, one of the girls at daycare somehow hit his glasses with her shoulder and jammed them right up into his cheek. Details are fuzzy, but the resulting cut was very strange. Has anyoneContinue reading “Just when a person starts to relax…”
Poseur
Well, I’ve been reading everyone’s posts lately and enjoying the new look and picture gallery (nicely done, Ann Z!), and I have to admit, I feel like such a poseur. As in, “What am I doing on this site?”, I can’t even imagine what it must be like to deal with what most of youContinue reading “Poseur”
Must Play
Not much to report about Franklin and his glasses lately, life has been moving along normally. I have been noticing a trend though; Franklin has been trying to get away with not wearing his glasses recently. Hmmm. As in, he doesn’t put them on right away in the morning until we mention it to him,Continue reading “Must Play”
Sunglasses
Franklin in his sunglasses Originally uploaded by Ann Felicia Today was sunny, and it sort of made me sad. I took the kids to the zoo. After we got everything from the car into the stroller, I took out my daughter’s sunglasses and put them on her face. Franklin said, “Mommy, did you bring myContinue reading “Sunglasses”
Nerd Strap
Nerd Strap Originally uploaded by Ann Felicia In response to Ann Z’s question about keeping a kid’s glasses on, I’d like to share this picture of Franklin’s Nerd Strap. I’m not sure how it would work on Zoe, but for a (now) 4 year old, it really helps keep the glasses up on his noseContinue reading “Nerd Strap”
I Heart Costco
Franklin’s new frames Originally uploaded by Ann Felicia It’s very appropriate that everyone’s talking warranties because I’ve been dealing with them myself with Franklin’s glasses. In my last post (which was a long, long time ago it seems), Franklin’s Jimmy Neutron glasses had just popped a weld and the lens had dropped out. We hadContinue reading “I Heart Costco”
MyFranklin
MyFranklin Originally uploaded by Ann Felicia I deleted this picture of my son from my “Glasses Wars” blog entry because it was just too big! I have a flickr account I use for work, so I’m trying to connect the photo through there. For anyone like me trying to get a handle on Web 2.0,Continue reading “MyFranklin”
Glasses Wars
Ann Z, good post. Why is it so hard for us? It made me think of some of the initial feelings I had too, beyond the heart sinking part. The worst for me was thinking that, in some way (and this is hard to admit), Franklin wasn’t perfect anymore. How horrible is that? As ifContinue reading “Glasses Wars”
Excuse me, my son needs what?
My personal journey with glasses began when I was about 6 or 7. I thought my sister and brother looked super cool in their glasses, so in an effort to try and copy them, I sort of fudged on the eye exam. What The Heck was I thinking? I would have needed glasses eventually anyway,Continue reading “Excuse me, my son needs what?”
