Sara Hinesley, who is 10, doesn't understand why it is so remarkable that she won a national handwriting competition.
Sara, a third-grade student at St. John Regional Catholic School in Frederick, Maryland, won the 2019 Nicholas Maxim award for her cursive (草书的)handwriting.
She paints and draws, and sculpts clay. She can write in English and some Chinese. When she learned to write in cursive this year, Sara said, she thought it was "kind of easy" This is all despite the fact that Sara was born without hands.
To write, Sara holds her pencil between her arms and then focuses on the shapes of letters, each point and curve. "Writing in cursive feels like creating artwork, Sara said. “I like the way the letters are formed. It's kind of art."
Sara has never worn a prosthesis (artificial arms), and when she is offered help or a tool that might ease some tasks—such as cutting paper with scissors-she rejects it, said her mother, Cathryn Hinesley. "She has this independent trend where she just knows that she can do it and she'll figure out her own way. She is beautiful and strong and mighty just the way she is, and she just lives that way. She really does. She moves through life in this way that you never really see her as having a disability because she has "I — can — do, I — can — solve — anything attitude".
"Sara is an evidence to strong will and the human spirit," Cathryn said. “Every day I am amazed at things she is capable to do and that she chooses to do. She doesn't attempt to find her way to avoid a difficulty. She finds a way to finish the task."
Sara will receive her national award-a medal-at an award ceremony on June 13, where she will also be given a $ 500 prize. She is the first student from St. John's to ever receive the Nicholas Maxim award.
