The Eyes Have It

 

Nolan was delighted when Gramma agreed to get her violin down.

He plans to remind her it's important to practice everyday.

 

When we decided to play with the beads,

I found out, orange is not only Nolan's favorite color...

it's his ONLY color.

 



 

Nolan demonstrates his blindness, or his magic.

He can make the world disappear.

 

Nolan is always happy to take his nap.

Grampa is always happy to take his, as well.

 

 

Special delivery!

What could it be?

 

 

Just what we ordered...

a gentleman for Friday.

 (Nolan's shirt says, "Big Bro.")

 



 

The other half of our special delivery.

 

 

 

I know who Seth looks like...

Auntie Becca!

(Auntie Becca is the one in the dress.)

 

 

From the California Gentlemen

 

 

Andrew is looking forward to getting glasses before kindergarten.

Auntie Becca always wanted glasses and braces.

A day after having the braces put on, she changed her mind.

She used to wear a pair of clear non-prescription glasses in junior high.

 

 

 

Piggie Gets Magic Glasses

by Gramma

 

 

PIggie went to see a wise man.  The wise man told him he had a gift for him.  Piggie was happy to get a gift.  "But it is not my birthday," he said.  The wise man said, "No it is not, but it is a good day for you.  I have a gift of magic glasses for you."

 

 

"What will the magic glasses do for me?" asked Piggie. 

 



 

"They will help you read words, so you can have lots of power to do good things.  You will be able to see your pals smile at you.  This will make you happy.  You will be able to see when your pals cry, so you will be able to make them feel happy.

 

When your Daddy rides in a plane, you will see his plane, until it is a small dot in the sky.  When he is gone, you can see the little stars twinkle, and you will know your Daddy sees them, too.  And you will be able to see the small dot when it is time for your Daddy to come home.

 

You will see little bugs, red and green plants to pick, and cobwebs you can dust.  The glasses will help you see in the sun, too.

 

You will need to work with the magic in your glasses, so your gift can get better day by day.  Then you can tell your pals what you now can see.  They may need help to see as well as you."
