For years we've explained color blindness to Dorothy as "the colors get mixed-up." After a long back-and-forth this week, she made it clear that she thought color blindness meant that you see all colors clearly, but they appear swapped-around, like a rainbow ordered "yellow, blue, orange, red, purple, green."
Dorothy asked me why I don't have cuts and scrapes on my elbows and knees like she does. "Well, you're 8, and you're more active than me," I told her. "And you are always wearing long sleeves and long pants?" she added.
