Logan and I have made it to Mississippi..It has been a whirlwhind of a trip so far...We flew in Friday night and went to see great granny...she was so happy to see Logan. Saturday we woke up bright and early and went to Starkvegas!! We went tailgating, saw Coach Croom at the dog walk (he gave Logan a high five!) and went to see the bulldogs beat Arkansas. Then we were off to Winona to see Poppy and Nana. We had a great time and went to church on Sunday, but left during the Lord's Prayer. Sunday evening we drove back to brandon to mimi and ray ray's house.
Monday we drove to Meridian to see Ann..she thought Logan was so advanced for his age (but she also thought he was 5 months old and he is 10 months!). Tuesday we went to Ray Ray's office for Thanksgiving lunch...the food was delicious then off to shop with MIMI for some bargains at Belks. Tuesday evening Grunt and Aunt P made it into town and Uncle Coy will arrive today.
Logan has been such a trooper. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and Logan loves and misses his daddy. We love ya!

LeeAnn, I loved the Christmas card. I am so thankful to hear that Logan's doctors report was good news. I know that's a blessing. You all looked like you had a blast when you were home and made some good memories. I can't wait to see photos of Logan's new glasses. He's such a little man in them. He is one of the most precious babies I have ever laid my eyes on. Love to you all and keep in touch.
I just wanted to let you know - my son was diagnosed with Ocular Albinism when he was 8 years old. Thankfully his student optometrist caught it and sent us to a pediatric ophthalmologist, who confirmed what the student had found. Needless to say, I switched eye drs. and 11 years later he's still seeing that eye dr. now. My son is a high functioning OA with a fairly high visual acuity and he’s lived his life with very few restrictions. My son Ty has worn transitional lenses since he was diagnosed and obviously we informed the educational system right away and any visual aids/adjustments that had to be made, were made (i.e. cannot use blackboards, which were being replaced with white boards anyways; cannot use overhead projectors; have to allow for more time to take tests in case eyes get tired and need to take breaks; provide any visual aids). My son was limited in few activities, one of them being baseball as looking up into a bright sky to see a white ball wasn’t something that he could do at all, but however, he was an awesome hockey player as he could make out a black puck on white ice)! Other than the occasional “bully” that made fun of his dark glasses, my son has lived a normal life filled with few limitations. He’s now 19 years old and has even gotten his beginner’s driver’s license as he was cleared by his eye Dr. to drive without any limitations. Since my son was diagnosed later in life, he had learned to live with OA so he has never seen it as a disability, but as a condition that he has caused him few limitations in life. All the best to you and your son and with dealing with his OA condition.
