Everytime were out & a stranger compliments on how big & beautiful her eyes are, I have a mental debate on whether or not I should mention her defect. I decide no, smile & say thank you. I’m always left with a weird feeling. I just pray she’ll always know how beautiful she is.

I get so nervous thinking about her starting school. What if other kids are mean about her eyes & she gets made fun of? What if she starts to hate her unique gorgeous eyes? It makes me want to cry thinking about it because she’s so strong & sweet & been through so much already 😔

Thought you guys might enjoy seeing some pics of Mehlani in her sunglasses, she’s super sensitive to light so she wears these anytime we go outside & I think they’re the cutest!!

For my bday, I'm asking for donations to Childrens Glaucoma Foundation Inc. I've chosen this nonprofit because their mission means a lot to me, & I hope you'll consider contributing as a way to celebrate with me. Every bit will help me reach my goal. facebook.com/donate/2213700
