I maybe be overreacting, being the mother of three children, it happens.

I took my daughter to the eye doctor today and they did their thing...at towards the end of the exam, he asked her to close her eyes and touch the tip of her nose with her pointer finger. Now let me point out, my child is very, very bright. She's very active ie. dance, cheerleading, scooters... cooridination is her middle name.

My son had just gotten thru the same exam right before her and she watched him do it. I babysit 6 kids everyday. When I got home from the appointment I asked them all to give it a try. They could all do it. They range in age from 3-5.

Could something be wrong? The eye doctor didn't seem to think it mattered, but then again he was around 87 years old...



Should I just relax? Because now, I'm starting to wonder about a few other things she complains about. Her feet hurt...I chalk it up to dance and the fac tthat she never sits down. She has pain around her right eye, like the socket. Again, eye doc didn't seem to bat an eye when I told him. She gets headache, more than I find normal for a 7 year old. Trust me, I have been babysitiing for a living...since I was 13 I'm now 32. I've seen it all, so to me, this seems like a real problem.

ANy ideas? Or are you just going to tell me to get on some crazy meds?
I kid, I kid.
