He was about eight and the girl was five or six. They were looking at the fruits in front of me. I heard the kids speak to their mom in French. “They look good!” I knew it was French because I could 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 holding them up to her face. Then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. She often asked her son if they looked okay, but looked above where his face was. Then,I was sure she was blind. Both kids continued to help pick out the fruits. The son made sure the fruits were not obviously bad, and the daughter handed them to her mom carefully. The woman then felt each one and smiled,and the daughter would put them into the basket. Their gentle manners made a lasting impression on me, which was a new kind of inspiration. It was so beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help. Most kids of similar age would be picking out candies or toys in a store for themselves, instead of helping to pick out fruits as the two kids did.
