My friend Michelle is blind, but you’d never know it. She makes such good use of her other 21 , including her“sixth sense”, that she rarely gives the impression that she‘s 22 anything.
Michelle looks after her children pretty much like the rest of us, 23 that she doesn‘t push too hard on them, 24 really benefit a lot from her relaxed attitude. She knows when to clean the house, and she moves around so fast that 25 often don‘t realize she‘s blind.
I 26 this the first time after my six-year-old daughter, Kayla, went to play there. When Kayla came home, she was very 27 about her day. She told me they had baked cookies, played games and done art projects. But she was 28 excited about her finger-painting project.
“Mom, guess what?” said Kayla, all smiles. “I learned how to 29 colors today! Blue and red make purple, and yellow and blue make green! And Michelle 30 with us”.
To my great 31 , my child had learned about color from a blind friend! Then Kayla continued, “Michelle told me my 32 showed joy, pride and a sense of accomplishment. She really 33 what I was doing!” Kayla said she had never known how good finger paints felt 34 Michelle showed her how to paint without looking at her paper.
I realized Kayla didn‘t know that Michelle was blind. It had just never 35 in conversation. When I told my daughter that Michelle was blind, she was 36 for a moment. At first, she didn‘t believe me. “But Mommy, Michelle knew exactly what was in my picture!” Kayla 37 . And I knew my child was 38 because Michelle had listened to Kayla describe her art work. Michelle had also heard Kayla‘s 39 in her work.
We were silent for a minute. Then Kayla said slowly, “You know, Mommy, Michelle really did ‘see’ my picture. She just used my 40 .”
Indeed, she uses a special type of “vision” that all mothers have.
