 Welcome
to MTatHome's May Newsletter.
April showers bring May flowers as the saying goes. The days are becoming warmer and the
sun is shining longer. Our children are getting excited because school days are over for a few months. We as parents ask ourselves the question, what do we do
after the kids are out of school and home. How can we handle our jobs and take care of them too. It's actually easier than it might feel, time management
There might be a bit of confusion at first but once a good solid routine is set the rest will come easy. Read the feature article and see how you can manage your
days of summer with less stress.

|
by Rachel Paxton
Do you ever feel like there's not enough time in the day? You've just realized it's time for bed, and you still haven't accomplished all you set out to do today?

The ability of the lens to alter its shape in order to focus on objects brought close to the eye is called "accommodation". The ability to accommodate is a basic, but important "biological age" test bio-marker.
Modern living re-enforces this age-related tendency of the lens to lose its ability to accommodate. Only recently have most of us performed sustained near vision tasks for year after year beginning at a young age.
