A Trip To the Eye Doctor...With The Kids!!!
My last visit to the eye doctor, I was accompanied by all three of our kids. I also made many prenatal doctor's appointments with one or two children in tow (however many were outside the womb at the time), because hubby was at work because it was the only way to get it done at the time. I'm old hat at this. In fact, I kind of enjoy it. Why? I don't know for sure - but I think it has something to do with being the only person in whichever office we might be visiting that has multiple children in tow. Now, I know we're not the Duggars, but where we live, people are impressed when you've got all your children hanging off you or walking in a line like little ducks behind you when you enter an office. I don't do it to impress - one of the reasons I enjoy doing this is that it usually leads to a unique learning experience for at least one of my kids. Take the trip to the eye doctor, for example. I loaded up three activity bags, complete with Leapster...
