Live gets glasses (soon)

Pay no mind to Liv's crazy hair--it is the end of the day--and focus on the glasses.  These are the winner and Liv should have them on her face by the end of the week, and this isn't a really flattering picture of her wearing them, I promise in person they are really cute!  I noticed Liv squinting at school to see the board and sometimes she just gets up, and goes to the front of the room to get a better look.  So, I made the appointment, and as it turns out Liv's vision is close to perfect (20/25).  Her problem is more a focusing issue.  When she focuses in tight to see things that are close to her, the muscles get too tight and start to spasm, then when she looks up and needs to relax her focus her eyes get 'stuck' and things are blurry.  Interesting, huh?  Anyway, her glasses will give her a little visual help, which should let her eyes work a little less and never tighten up so much that they get to a spasming point...we'll see.  Liv is way excited to get them, as they are a novelty item.  We'll see how long that lasts...
