Emily did not look like other infants（幼儿）when she was born.She had a distinct appearance facially,standing out among the other babies in the hospital.She was born with Apert Syndrome,which affects physical appearance in several ways.I was first introduced to many of the facts of this rare Syndrome when Emily's mother came in to speak to me a few days before first grade.

Now Emily found herself in a new school,with unfamiliar classmates.I noticed a little girl's startled expression as she focused on Emily.Emily smiled at the child and the little girl smiled back.The first lime my teaching aide had to leave the room,a child jumped up and asked if she could help Emily.This girl stood over Emily,dotting words and sentences for her trace,exactly as her aide did each morning.A cute redheaded girl often stared into space rarely completing required tasks.Then one day she volunteered to help Emily.

Then came that day in March when Emily's mom told me she was to have facial surgery.I had to explain her absence.I was asked many logical questions."Did it hurt?" "Will she come back?"

Emily's hospital conduct further illustrated her excellent bravery.She told her father,"I do not want you to carry me into the operating room."She explained to the attending nurse that she did not want any medicine and didn't want to wear the blue operating room cap or change into hospital clothes.Emily walked into the operating room on her own feet!

It was inevitable that some of the children would see Emily after her operation,before she came to school for a visit.I had to explain that she was wearing something that looked like a catcher's mask on her face.Some visited her at home.Each child who saw her came to school greeted the class by shouting,"I saw Emily!"my first-graders had the ability to perceive the heart of Emily and I feel certain that she will continue to use her remarkable（非凡的） strength of character to overcome the struggles she has yet to face.

"Only a few years and you'll be an adult!"It's true that in two years I'll be 18,and that will make me legally an adult.But it's also just a number.It doesn't come with a magical moment where you know all the stuff adults are supposed to know how to do.It doesn't make responsibilities easier.It just makes it legal for you to enter online sweepstakes and work at Walmart（沃尔玛）.You can start being a "grown up" long before then or long after.

This thought all started hack in July when my friend,Dakota,officially flew out for military basic training in Oklahoma.He's 17.He can't rent a movie from most places,but he can defend our country.I didn't realize how much his actual departure would affect me arid the way I viewed growing up and when it actually starts.

Then,in September,my best friend Madeline is now studying psychology in London.She's 18.She's worked ridiculously hard,and slaved over textbooks to get the perfect grades.Now,she's booking her own plane tickets,going grocery shopping,being in complete control of' her personal life.I have a basic idea of how a loan works,but applying for one?Forget it.I don't even have a credit card.My other friends are growing up around me,making decisions,that will affect the rest of their life.Where do I fit in?My life is so different from the standard,it's hard to compare.I'm home-schooled.I have been fashion blogging since I was 13,an occupation that has definitely taught me a lot first-hand about the outside world.Earlier this year,I landed my first Teen Vogue feature and worked with the Disney Channel.But if you add that up,it doesn't equal adult,it equals an accomplished teenager.

I made myself a list of "Things to Learn Before I Grown Up".Number one?Figure out the whole loan thing.But it's also important to me to enjoy being young.I like having my mom cook for me,and getting to just be goofy（傻瓜的）sometimes without worry.So in conclusion,my point is this: being a grownup is less about your age,and more about what you do with your life.
