Two Year Old "Extreme Tantrum" Edition

Today was appointment #2 with CHOP Ophthalmology.  It was a traffic fighting morning on the way, but Mercy did great in the car.  It was once we got into the patient room that she decided to put her grumpy on and well see for yourself...

Tantrum #1

And she's getting back up

Nope, she's down again

Refusing to sit on Daddy's lap

If I can't see you, you can't see me.

Head tilts up, "Is mommy still looking at me?"

Oh Good, now back to my fit!

I will not cooperate

You cannot make me wear my glasses and take your test, so there.

Crying

Screaming!

SCREAMING!!!

I will drink my cup with an attitude and I won't look at anyone.

I will hold the water in my mouth and spit it on you when you make me mad.

Who needs glasses anyway?

You might make me sit on the chair, but I will not look up!

And back down she goes.

The End!

This may be one of my favorite posts to taunt her with when she is older.  On a medical note, she doesn't need to go back until next July.  Her vision is no longer (probably never was) 20/190, but is now stated to be 20/400.  The reality is that with Albinism numbers mean very little, and we know she is living life loud and her vision doesn't hinder her.  There is still talk of a future surgery to correct her head tilt, but nothing we need to worry about for a couple more years, in the meantime we pray.  Hope you found this post as funny as we did!
