Hola! My name is Meghan and as you can tell I am the baby of the four of us. I am also the blind one, but Luke has made it his mission to lead me around.

I could tell as we walked to each of the cabins he started to get a little on edge about not being able to follow us into the cabins. He got really nervous when he had to let me go but I assured him that it would be okay. When I passed the thresh hold my eyes got blurry, BLURRY!! This shouldn't happen, I have been legally blind since I was born! But after about seven seconds I was able to see clearly. Not being able to see things till you're 14 really opens your eyes. Everything was so pretty! There was this big fountain in the middle of the cabin and the walls were old wood, I knew it was old because of the smell and feel. There was also a wall sized fish tank with exotic fish. I have always loved water and no one can resist going to the water and grazing their hands across it. I never knew how breathtaking water really is. I walked over to the fountain taking in its beauty with each step. I looked at my rippled reflection in the clear glassy water. I never knew what I looked like, it was amazing. I knew from being told descriptions that my eyes were different from everyone else. They were gray, I don't know what that meant but it cant be a bad thing, because my eyes looked beautiful, they were radiating light. It was so intense. When I put my hand in the water something pulled me in. Being a normal human I started to panic but something in me told me to stay calm. I'm not sure what it was but I listened to it and relaxed. Don't ask why but I did and it was one of the best feelings I think I have ever felt in my entire life. The weird thing is, is that I could breath! Yeah like who can't breath on a normal basis, but I'm still under the water. It was one most amazing feelings in the world that anyone could feel. How was I able to see and breath under water? At some point I tried to move around in the water and it pushed me out. Not just out on to the floor, but out of the cabin all together. I start to look around in panic and the last thing I remember seeing is Luke with glowing eyes! Everything went back to normal after that. I was really upset because I was just able to see how amazing things are and the awesome thing is, is that I got to see my twin brothers face for the first time.
