This morning we went to a wonderful play The Miracle Worker with our homeschool group. We have been studying about Helen Keller and this seemed a more accurate portrayal than the movie, though we haven't read her autobiography to compare. With her situation on my mind, it seems simple to say I am thankful for my vision and hearing, yet I am. We are so blessed with our abilities, yet sometimes find it easy to take them for granted.
I am also thankful for our homeschool group.

I love the Miracle Worker story. I've always loved reading about Helen Keller too. Great homeschool trip to make.
ReplyDeleteI can scarcely imagine not being able to see my children's faces, or hear their laughter.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, as I read this book it brought to mind how thankful I am for so many things that come with vision and hearing.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check into that play.
