gone.

oh where? oh where? oh where have you gone?

i spent a huge amount of time today searching. searching.

for a two year old's glasses. they seem to have just disappeared into thin air. thin air. gone. poof! vanished.

and when i ask. i get a silly grin and a shrug of the shoulders with hands up. and this. "gone bye-bye, mommy. gone bye-bye."

so i seek them out. under the beds. the couch, the chairs. in the closets. the cupboards. the trash cans. in the toy chests, the play houses. the cars and trucks and trains. in the cars. in the coats and hats and mittens. everywhere.

and they are gone. gone. gone.

but. i am determined. i shall find them.

they shall return.

the opthamologist and her nurses asked. prodded. bribed. the same silly grin and shrug.

they got the picture. they laughed, but they got the picture...

but she said he must wear them. so it's either find them or fork over too much $$$ to get a new pair. that shall be lost, too. i'm sure.
