Dots failed the eye examination at her annual physical in May, so I took her to an eye doctor last week. Lo and behold, she needed glasses! We found a pair that she liked (Juicy Couture, no less), placed an order and picked them up yesterday. I think Dots looks so cute in them. Certainly a far cry from my first pair of glasses!
Me in my sixth grade class picture. In addition to my groovy octogon-shaped glasses, I was wearing a shirt that my mother embellished with eyelet and rickrack. The back of the shirt featured my name spelled in red gingham with a frog or some such animal appliqued below it. Ah, the 70's...

She looks so cute! Does she like wearing them? And you were adorable :)
Dots looks really cute in her glasses!
She looks cute, and you looked cute in your old pic too! But indeed, glasses have come a long way.
I loved that shirt. As I remember, mine had a ladybug!
Dots is looking so cute and smart! I love her new glasses and you are so nice to go with the Juicy ones!!
At least you look cute in 6th grade! I'd take octagon shaped glasses any day over what I had - TINTED glasses. Ick.
boy - y'all look just alike, amazing! adorable!!!
i started with glasses in the second grade when my best friend got them and I faked my exam (I think) - legally blind now and having all sorts of eye issues. anyway - my daughter kept saying she couldn't see and that the teacher wanted her to get her eyes checked. this was in the 7th grade - well, she had always passed every school exam and i just refused to believe it. when i finally was guilted into making an appt. - the dr. informed me - she REALLY REALLY needed them badly. Lizzy has never let me forget this. just thought I would share that fabulous story.
your husband's trip makes me exhausted just to hear about it.
love your gingham shirt too!!!!
Too too cool!
Oh my goodness, I just LOVE that old picture! It's a CLASSIC!! Your mom must have been creative!
I can see the family resemblance!
