Rebecca's new glasses

Rebecca got her first pair of glasses shortly after she turned three years old. They were light brown metal frames with Spongebob on the ear pieces. Over the next three years she got two pink pairs in a row. She has worn this last pink pair for about two years.

Recently we went in to have her eyes checked again and even though her prescription did not change, her glasses were small and her lenses were scratched. I hadn't planned on getting new glasses for her unless the prescription had changed, but the doctor's office suggested we see what the insurance would pay for towards a new pair of glasses. Since we had different insurance than the last time, we decided to give it a try.

We went to the glasses shop and while the sales lady was checking with the insurance, Rebecca started trying on frames. She had a great time and picked out a pair of pink wire frames. The sales lady came back and told us that insurance would cover everything! Cool! I was excited about that! At the last minute, Rebecca changed her mind and chose a dark red plastic frame. I asked if she was sure that was what she wanted and she said yes.

So today we went and picked up her brand new pair of glasses. The frames are bigger so they fit her better, and she got transition lenses which she was very excited about! She looks great!
