Nyle stories

Contacts:

Nyle put contacts in for the first time a month ago.  He then explained to Vivian what contacts were when he saw her two days later.  "Contacts are these soft things, and when you put them on, faces become ginormous and everything far away looks blurry."  Needless to say, his prescription was too strong, and we've since had that changed.  He's used to his glasses doing strange things with magnification, different from one eye to the other, so the contacts looked quite different to him.

I'm very happy with how well he's doing with the contacts.  He insisted that he would not try them, but I kept working on him, and somehow he gave in when we were at the optometrist's.  Ever since he tried them, he's been very patient with us putting them on and taking them off.


Bunny:

A few months ago someone had a bunny in primary and the kids were playing with it after church.  Nyle very seriously asked whether "him" could take Emmett home (pointing to someone else in the room) so we can take the bunny home with us.  He would be happy with that pet exchange.
