Kids Needing Glasses

I was six years old, in first grade and loved my red 

and white striped glasses. Being allowed to pick out

my first pair made all the difference in the world.

Being able to read the blackboard like all the other

kids, helped a lot, too! It was great to learn my

grandson's experience was much the same.

Although, Jude was a bit older when needing his

first pair, he's thrilled with his selection and can't

believe how his world has opened up. His first

hours were spent excitedly discovering everything

readable without the need to squint. Ain't life grand!!

Keep on staying safe and washing those hands!

Kids and their Nintendo Switches/Game Consoles

After being told where my grandson was playing with his friend, I stepped into his room. Something didn't sound right! It was completely silent. There was no movement. There was no interaction between friends. Just two boys, on opposite sides of the room, playing on their Nintendo Switches (game consoles), each absorbed in their own worlds.  "Hmm..." I thought out loud. "Here's a novel idea. How about you both find a game you like and play together on one Nintendo Switch?" They did! They liked it and in my book, they were now playing! I left the room hearing laughter, squealing, smiling and lots of communicating. Music to my ears :)
