What's Up with the Glasses?

Recently I took my grandgirls shopping and guess what they wanted to buy? They wanted to go straight to Claire's to buy some glasses. They don't NEED glasses that I know of but no matter, from that shopping trip until now, glasses are an important part of their day. If we go on a shopping excursion, they go hunting for their glasses. Tonight I could not stop laughing when the girls' mom emailed the picture you're seeing. My granddaughter proudly announced that she needed her glasses to check her email. Truthfully I don't think she has email either but you can see that she is very serious about her glasses and her email.

A lot has changed in the world and I guess the stigma of wearing glasses might be one of those things.

Please stop in and visit my new blog friend Keetha at The Eclectic Company. She is a teacher and today she learned that her school is closing. She could use some e-visits and words of kindness.

    This must be a "thing." My kids at school are always coming in with glasses on - - - as if they were just a part of their "fashion" statement. Oh yah, those kids don't NEED the glasses either.

    Now that is one FUNNY picture - - - just look are HUGE that lappy looks on your gran's lap!!!!!

    I remember my oldest wanting glasses when she didn't need them, now she does and wishes she didn't. Sigh..always the same.

    Thanks.

    A fashion statement I'm sure. Well at least they don't cost the earth - or do they have to br designer ones?
