One spring afternoon, I picked up all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults were sitting and talking over tea after dinner.“Can I climb the stone walls?”I asked. Immediately the women in the room cried.“Heavens, no! You; _78_ yourself!”I wasnt too disappointed; their reply was just as Id expected. But before I could leave the room, my grandfather stopped me.“Wait a minute.”I heard him say,“Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to _79_ to do things for himself.”“Hurry up,”he said to me,“and come and see me when you get back.”For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life.

I heard the kids say to their mom in French.“Theyre good!”I knew it was French because I can speak and understand it.Then I noticed how the mom was picking the fruits. At first I thought she was really looking at the fruits because she was facing them. But then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. And she often asked her son if it looked okay, but looked way above where his face was. Putting what I saw together, I was sure she was blind.Both of the kids continued to help their mom pick out the fruits. The son made sure the fruits were not obviously bad, and the daughter handed them to her mom. The woman then felt each one and smiled, and the daughter would put them into their basket.

It was so beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help.
