Monday's Conversation

E: Mom, my teacher was talking about getting a dog. I can't remember the name of it, but it works with your eyes. It can see thru them.

Mom: What? I have no idea what it's called.

E:It's the kind that help people you know.

Mom:Oh, do you mean a "Seeing-Eye-Dog"?

E: Yeah, yeah that's what they're called. She's going to get one.

Mom: Oh, how nice. That's the type of dog that they help train to help blind people. Once they are trained she will give it to a blind person who needs it.

E: Mrs. Reed has glasses so she can keep it.

Mom: No, Emmy. She has to be blind.

S: Well then Dad can keep it, 'cause he can't see anything without his glasses.

Mom: No. your Dad can see.

E: No Mom. He's blind without them. I know it.


Well according to the kids we should be getting another dog soon.

OMG, you and the kids are TOO funny! I can't stop laughing.

To clarify to your children, their dad can see fine w/out his glasses. Their Auntie T, on the other hand, can't see the chart let alone the E at the top w/out glasses. I'm the one who is blind. NO, we're not getting a dog. : )

I'm still laughing. : )

I'm laughing so hard, I can't stand it. Probably laughing because I know this conversation actually took place!
