Mostly milk with a splash of coffee. Is that a Southern thing? I haven't done it with my kids because I tend to be very caffeine sensitive.<br /><br />I love that your son is into Shakespeare. And I think "interesting" is about the highest compliment my kids can get. But then again I am one of those weird homeschoolers too. Too bad you're so far away my kids and yours could hang out and be all geeky together. I bet Ben and Anthony would love to have Beowulf minifigures, if such things exist. Or samurai.<br />Melanie Bettinellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12557248434888642114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-902102460517670809.post-22313330772462320822014-03-20T22:17:16.049-05:002014-03-20T22:17:16.049-05:00Do Finns drink coffee at a young age- I think that...Do Finns drink coffee at a young age- I think that for plain old Americans, drinking coffee used to be a right of passage- not so much now...<br />about the eye doctor- I think I will start with a local doc and see if he thinks we need to go pediatricpriest's wife - S.T./ Anne Boyd https://www.blogger.com/profile/03792937108732259684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-902102460517670809.post-91890770558226784732014-03-20T22:15:41.619-05:002014-03-20T22:15:41.619-05:00haha- you didn't know?

But I had a kiddo with eye troubles. Lazy eye is actually a weaker vision eye that lags behind the other. A wandering eye is caused by weaker muscles. You can have both our one and not the other. I'd get a referral to an pediatric opthomologist. They can work wonders.

Oh well. And a love of Shakespeare is a positive thing. Did they realize that Shakespeare was the GK Chesterton of his day?

I say this not as a judgment, but because we caught eye issues with my eldest early on that way. When she was to start JK, about a month or so before, we took her to the optometrist a) because my brother was in late Kindergarten/Early Grade 1 when he needed glasses, and b) my husband started wearing glasses young as well. We caught slight strabismus with her, as well as discovering that she needed glasses (which explained some things). What we ended up doing was for a time, on our optometrist's advice, we patched her good eye at home for so long a period of time each day. We got the disposable patches because it wasn't a long-term thing, and it was only at home. It worked and she has no issues at all now, other than still needing glasses (she's far-sighted and has astigmatism) and likely needing them for the rest of her life. <br />Our son needed glasses as well...and it was only after he'd had them for a bit that we realized that was why he squinted so much before he had them...we have natural squinters in our family, so... He didn't have anything needing patching. <br />That would be my advice, fwiw. <br />:)Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03097572935671785197noreply@blogger.com
