I wore glasses from 1976-2015. My mom always told me I was beautiful, even amongst the children who would taunt me about being"four eyes"
After I had eye surgery to implant lens in 2015, I started getting comments from friends and foes about how beautiful my face was and why did I cover it all those years (like I had a choice).
I guess after 5 years my mom forgot what I looked like in glasses.
Yesterday at her house there were two pennies waiting to be picked up for luck in her driveway. She took one I took the other. I was trying to read the date on her American penny, and couldn't find the date on my Canadian one. I asked Tarzan for his readers.
Mom, "I want a picture of that - you look old".
I guess I'm a beautiful old person. ๐ฅฐ
