It is very likely that one day, Brenna will need glasses. Both sides of the family have them - everyone in the immediate family, so it is probably inevitable...unfortunately. For now, her vision is great (last time it was checked). But, while perusing the dollar store yesterday, B found a pair of reading glasses that she just HAD to have. She specifically said to me "I need them for nighttime, like you." They are small like a child's glasses and have a pretty pattern on them, so I can see why they'd be appealing to her. So, for the super cheap price of $1, I gave in and bought them for her (after all they came with a case too). I popped out the lenses and whattaya know, a new toy! She wore them in the car for a bit, but then took them off so she could surprise Travis when we met him for dinner. While at dinner, she adopted all the mannerisms of a long-time-glasses-wearer (well reading glasses anyway), pulling them off to make a point, to hear better, to talk to someone. It was hilarious. I have no idea where she got those mannerisms, I wear my glasses pretty infrequently and once they are on, they are on (or I won't be able to see my hand in front of my face LOL). But it was adorable! I think it's fun that she likes them and can only hope that it'll be many years before she actually needs them and that she'll still like the idea when the time comes.
