Aaron's turn

We took Aaron to the ophthalmologist yesterday, just to check whether he might need glasses like his brother. The exam for two-year-olds is even more astonishing than for five-year-olds: they showed him letters on a computer screen, and asked him to "find the match" on a card he was holding. It seemed like a complicated game for a toddler to play, but he hit it every time. And they were letters - T, V, O, H. Did you know two-year-olds could match letters?

After establishing that he understood the game, they patched one eye for the real exam. (That was the only part he didn't like.) The result: Aaron has excellent vision. Yay!
