Seeing

Miss Pips started complaining about having a headache everyday.

At first I brushed it off, thinking that she was just wanting to take some medicine (my kids are all Tylenol junkies).  Then I remembered that the last time I ignored her complaints about feeling sick I ended up with a car full of puke. 

So I took her to the eye doctor.  There wasn't anything too wrong, but her eyes could use a bit of a boost when she's reading.  We left with a prescription for reading glasses.

Do you have any ideas how much people want you to pay for children's glasses?  We were looking at paying around $50 for a pair of cheap frames and then another $30 for the lenses.  Yikes!

Luckily I remembered this little site called Zenni Optical where I got her glasses shipped for just $15.  Not a huge selection, but Pipes ended up with a pink pair, so all is well.

Now, to keep her from losing or maiming them...
