[blindkid] Incorporating braille at home

[Traci W]

I even put stickers on our microwave and oven and water dispenser on fridge!  The ones labeled are the ones they are allowed to touch, like on oven. 

I brailled my work files so my daughter can file for me. Although she quickly realized how much filing stinks! Ha!

Four, if something should happen to my husband, who is cited, I need to be able to manage things without him. Being there. I had better know where things are, just in case. I read to my children and braille, everything in my house has a label. Sometimes I have evenknow where things are. Particularly if they may not belong to me; and/or I need to take them somewhere.
