Can you read it now....?

Per his own request, I took Remy to the Eye Doctor...things were getting blurry, he said... He had glasses made about a year ago but he seldom wears them, partly because he is always running, jumping, climbing trees, chasing sheep...
So we went to see Dr. E., he has known our family since we moved here, and it is always fun to go visit...his office has this old timey feel about it... very cozy.. So after the obligatory chit chat, with Remy sitting on the chair...he started his exam, with the usual chart...

Dr. E.: Can you read this line?
Remy: No.
Dr. E.: Can you read this line?
Remy: No.
Dr. E.: How about this one...can you read this?
Remy: No.

By now, I am getting worried....is his vision really this bad...? and I have not noticed...? how could I let it get this bad....? The good doctor continued.... I could see that he was puzzled as well...

Dr.E.: Hmmm....let's try this line, can you read this one?
Remy: No.

And then it dawned on me.....

Mama: Remy, you are only supposed to read the letters, not the whole word....
Remy : Aaahh......B, D, C, L, K......
