Resemblances

I was looking at the picture in the previous post, and telling [livejournal.com profile] selenite that I fully expected to start getting comments about how much Jamie looks like his Daddy, even more now that he has glasses. Well, he may look like [livejournal.com profile] selenite, I thought, but he didn't follow his Daddy's pattern in his prescription - unlike nearsighted [livejournal.com profile] selenite, he's farsighted and has strabismus, like his mother.

Then I thought - right, this cute little brownhaired boy with his new round glasses? Spitting image of his father - but he has his mother's eyes.

Pardon me as I put my head in my hands and giggle at the fannish geeky appropriateness of it all...

*giggle* It is, indeed!!


I hope he adjusts well to them! So long as the glasses tend to align with his eyebrows -- if he's like me -- should be okay. Also, if he's far-sighted, what he sees over the glasses will probably tend to be farther away anyway, and less of an issue than him looking down at close stuff in his lap. Or so I presume -- I'm near-sighted, so I'm just extrapolating.
