I can see clearly now the rain is gone....

When I picked Jacob up from school today he had an envelope in his hand that he said was very important. He told me that I couldn't read it until I got home. So of course I opened it as we were walking back to the car. It went something like this...This letter is to inform you that Jacob failed his vision test in both eyes and that we should consider taking him to a dr. to get his eyes checked...A couple of problems with this.

#1- Jacob can spot a piece of candy from across the room w/o hesitation.

#2- Jacob has the best observation skills that I've seen from any 6 year old . He tells me when the light is green, he tells me that lady driving next to me is old and I better be careful because old ladies can't see. The list goes on in that area.

#3- Jacob has been known to wear my glasses around the house because he thinks he looks "cool."

So I asked him if he really has a hard time seeing things. He said, well no, but I look good wearing glasses so I think I should get some...
