My friend Michelle is blind, but you’d never know it. She makes such good use of her other  36  , including her "sixth sense", that she rarely gives the impression she's   37  anything.

Michelle looks after her children pretty much like the rest of us,   38  that she doesn’t push too hard on them,   39  really benefit a lot from her relaxed attitude. She knows when to clean the  house, she moves around so fast that often   40  don't realize she's blind.

I   41  this the first time after my six-year-old daughter, Kayla, went to play there. When Kayla came home, she was very   42  about her day. She told me they had baked cookies, played games and done art projects. But she was   43  excited about her finger-painting project.

"Mom, guess what?" said Kayla, all smiles. "I learned how to   44  colors today! Blue and red make purple, and yellow and blue make green! And Michelle  45   with us.

I realized Kayla didn't know that Michelle was blind. It had just never   50  in conversation.

When I told her, she was   51  for a moment. At first, she didn't believe me. "But Mommy, Michelle knew exactly what was in my picture!" Kayla  52  . And I knew my child was  53   because Michelle had listened to Kayla describe her artwork. Michelle had also heard Kayla's   54  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   55  ."

Indeed, she uses a special type of “vision” that all mothers have.
