This year my baby failed her school eye test. So over the hill and through the woods to the optometrist we went. As fits with our family history glasses were in order.
Now me? My heart melted. I think she looks adorable in glasses. But her? She wasn't too sure about this latest development. It took some poking, some prodding and some serious reassuring. It also took a touch of bribery; cooperation for an original mama made case worthy of a little girl. She acquiesced.
Not wanting to disappoint I got right to work. She got her glasses yesterday. I presented her with this today:
A lined felt case with a touch of embroidery. This is a pattern of my own design -- it was quite simple. Perhaps if I'm feeling saucy I'll make another and photograph the steps.
Tonight I'm waxing nostalgic. Watch out for those gushy gooey mama hormones. My baby, at seven, is not such a baby anymore. She looks so grown up and is darling to boot. Why oh why can't they stop this growing, this morphing, this maturing? I guess that's what photography is for. To capture these moments in time.
XOXO.

i love that eye glass case and your girl looks sassy in her glasses.
Your daughter looks so cute in her glasses. And I love the case. I look forward to your sharing the steps =)
adorable on her. your so good to make her funky cases for them.
Oh thank you. I really do adore this look. I hope she will come to love it too.
She looks absolutely adorable, those are great glasses for her, and the case is really cute!
She is simply beautiful. And what a lucky girl to have such a talented Mama!
Those are much, much cuter glasses than the hideous frames I was saddled with in junior high. Little looks great in hers! And what a wonderful little case for them! Great mama powers at work there. *high five*
She looks so very sweet. Love her big blue eyes, stunning. Jacinta
