Eyes and Angels

In just a few days we will be celebrating the boys' first birthday.

One year.
365 days.
Where did the time go?

Colby is doing so well that he really is my miracle baby. He's a tad behind... or maybe not behind, but at the tail end of the "normal" range of development. But he's still perfect.

Last week we had his eye check-up. During his stint in the NICU his eyes always checked out as perfect, but we had to check again at 1 year just to make sure things were still looking good. And I'm glad to say that they are!

When I was in the office with the eye doc she mentioned that another little boy in the waiting room had been a 25-weeker and, like Colby, he has always checked out as perfect with Early Intervention and with his eyes. She asked what his secret was. I just laughed it off, but it occurred to me later on what his secret is.


He is lucky enough to have his very own angel looking after him.
