June brought Adam's yearly check up and his pediatrician thought his headaches that he gets might be related to his vision. We took him on Monday to the doctor to get his vision tested and it is PERFECT. Why then does he have glasses??? Having perfect vision is usually not a good thing. Most people have a little wiggle room which helps your eyes rest. Adam's eyes have to work overtime when he is reading, working on the computer or working on math or things that are close up at school. They discovered this by dilating his eyes and testing him again once his muscles in his eyes were relaxed a little bit. The doctor said it can sometimes be hard to diagnosis.
Adam doesn't need to wear his glasses unless he is doing one of the things previously listed. We are hoping that his headaches will go away now with his glasses. He is a little nervous, but I think it has helped him to have been reading Harry Potter this summer. He picked frames that are similar to Harry's as you can see.
On the note of Harry Potter...Adam is currently on chapter 12 of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. He has finished the first 4 of the 7 books this summer and is well on his way to finishing the 5th. I am very proud of him and the example it has set for his younger siblings. Because of Adam, Addison is very excited to learn how to read. She has been working on her letters so that she is ready for school! Addison has listened to a lot of the books as well this summer and wants to be like Hermione Granger who is a very smart girl in the series that reads and studies a lot. What a great person to be like :) Way To Go Adam :) The kids have also chosen to be Harry Potter characters for Halloween this year. Adam will be Harry, Addison will of course be Hermione Granger, Alex will be Ron Weasley and Amelia will be either Ginny Weasley or Luna, Mom will be Professor McGonagall and Dadam will hopefully be home in time to be Professor Dumbledore or Hagrid. Dadam is still in deliberation!!
