Personal Narrative: Blue Glasses

Decent Essays
When I was in second grade I had trouble seeing things. I told my parents and they took me to the eye doctor. The doctor said I need glasses. I was so excited to pick them up. They took me to this desk, and took out so many glasses. They told me to sort them into piles. I finally picked out these cute blue glasses. The glasses were as blue as the ocean. They explained to me how to take care of them. When I went to school the next day, I was nervous on how people would react. They all said they looked good. I could finally see things on the board. When I went home I took them off to clean them. They were really dirty. My parents asked me about my day, and I told them I could finally see things. I loved my glasses then, and I still have them
