Vision Test Day

Today Greyson had his vision tested and we found out he needs reading glasses. We also found out that he has some developmental vision issues and will have to be tested further to see what therapies will best suit his needs. The doctor feels that his vision problems are somewhat responsible for the fact that his reading is below normal. It is a battle to get him to read or to even read to him. He finds no fun at all in reading and I am hoping we can turn that around some once he gets his glasses and therapy starts. He did great at the eye doctor though and afterward I rewarded him with a trip to the outdoor water park at the YMCA. we stayed a while and he sported his old man sunglasses that he had to wear due to his pupils being dilated. He was looking so cool I tell you! :) What a guy...we went earlier in the day and got a new Lego that he built all by himself. He loves his Lego's especially Indiana Jones and Star Wars ones. they seem to have taken the place of our massive Thomas the Tank Engine collection that we played with in the early years. Well today marked another day of answers and another step to providing the therapies needed to helping Greyson find his way in the world. Tomorrow is another day...but for now...one day at a time. By the way guys....Greyson picked the photo for his vision test blog. haha He is obsessed with the new movie coming out... 'Chihuahua'

You guys are wonderful! Not only is he a lucky little man, but you girls are pretty lucky yourselves. He has a beauty in him that is hard to miss. I can't wait to watch this guy grow up into an incredible man. He will, you know? He could very possibly turn this world on its ends and make things better for everyone. He has it in him, I am sure of it. Lots of love to all of you!
