I know this is one of my mom's favorite outfits so I figured I would get one more picture before we retired it :)

Edison had an appointment with the ophthalmologist today. She gave us a good report on many levels in terms of his vision and his previous issues with his eye turning in, etc. However, she gave us a new term to add to our vocabulary: ptosis. She was very surprised she had not noticed this before. It basically means his eye lid droops potentially impeding his vision. The treatment for this is surgery if it does seem to effect his vision. We are going to see a surgeon who specializes in eye lid surgery on Tuesday to see what his recommendation is. I know in the grand scheme of things this is not major, but it is something else Edison will have to deal with and he's dealt with enough. However he is currently blissfully unaware of all of this and has been just amazing the past few days. He loves saying "Hi" and "Bye" to everyone he sees and just has the most amazing smile always at the ready.

Jen,
I think this was his retro 60's outfit , and Dobie is right he is growing right out of it!

Will keep you in thought and prayer as the eye situation is considered. One more mountain for little Dinky to climb!

Take care,
Debi:)
