Night Vision

Laura was helping Nathan go to sleep and he was nervous about the darkness. "Turn the blue light on, Mommy, so I can see," he said. "It will be alright once your eyes have adjusted," she replied. A moment later, she said, "Can you see better now?" "Yes." Just then, I turned on a light down the hall and the light reflected into his room. Nathan exclaimed, "Now my eyes are adjusted, Mommy!" Unaware of their interaction, I then turned a light on in his bathroom, which sent light directly into his room. "My eyes adjusted again, Mommy!"
