The Eyes Have It (and the Teeth Do Too!)

Last week, DQ got fitted for contact lenses.

It was her dream come true.

She's complained about her glasses since day one, and I don't blame her, she's at that age where looks are everything.

Hopefully now, dodge ball won't be as embarassing.

She was beaming all week.

Yesterday, she had more hardware removed.

Braces off after nearly FOUR (I miscalculated and added a year previously) years, my tween can see her teeth!

Oh the gorgeous-ness.

Where did my baby girl go?

    Wow! My daughter is jonesing for the contacts, too. Sure makes them look older, doesn't it?!

    She's beautiful!

    Contacts are like a right of passage, I remember finally being old enough that my parents allowed me to wear them.

    I'm sure you're already doing this, but please stress to her the importance of contact care. I got lazy with my contact hygiene a few years ago and ended up with an eye infection that could have blinded me.
