TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN Bg A THE TORONTO 5) SYNDICATE You can see that one of Craig's eyes is not normal but he is to have surgery to correct it. Craig has also been fitted with glasses, which he will need to wear after the operation to maintain the correction. He is not wearing his glasses here because at 15 months he doesn't yet understand what they are for and he doesn't like the feel of them. But his foster mother says he is a good-natured amenable little fellow and she is sure he will soon get used to his glasses. Craig was born prematurely and so his development is behind the average forhis age. He has only two teeth so far, and he was a bit late in starting to walk. Craig is gradually making up his prematurity, however, and has had none of the health problems often associated with being born too soon. Now that he is walking he is constantly on the go, and he entertains himself well with his own toys or preferably with the contents of the kitchen cupboards. Friendly, outgoing Craig loves children and animals and people in general. He is almost never shy. He likes to go out in the car and is a splendid traveler. He eats well and is a 12-hour- a-night sleeper even with a long afternoon nap. He seems to understand whatever is said to him and is building up a vocabulary of his own. Music goes to his feet -- he loves to dance. There are allergies and asthma in Craig's background but the baby himself has had no hint of either.
