Amy returned to her small apartment at midnight, tired. Her worst fears raced through her mind. Would the court tell her she couldn’t care for her family anymore? Would the kids go through the sadness once more of being split up and sent away? She was so young, almost a child herself, and yet Amy knew everything depended on her. At that moment, she wondered if she would ever find the strength to see it through.

From earliest childhood, Amy took care of her younger brothers. Jan, their mother, only added to the family disorder and confusion because of her drug addict. Sometimes they lived in apartments, sometimes in shelters.

One afternoon Amy was called to the high school, where a social worker was waiting for her. “We’re going to have to put you guys in foster(收养) care.” the social worker said. “No! Don’t spilt us up!” the girl cried out. “Can’t you just leave it the way it is?” The social worker shook his head. Amy’s voice then rose like the howl of a lion protecting her babies: “Why can’t I take them? I take care of them all the time anyway.” The social worker hesitated, and then said, “Maybe. Once you’re 18, you could apply to become their relative caretaker. Then you’d be their foster mother until we find a home where all of you can be together.” “I’ll do it,” Amy said.

One month later, Amy was named guardian of her brothers for a six-month trial period. It was a remarkable victory for an 18-year-old girl. Her brothers didn’t make her task any easier in the months ahead. However,Amy’s efforts were rewarded when the court allowed her to continue as guardian. Amy’s relief at remaining the kids’ guardian was at risk of being taken away by the pressure she always

felt to measure up. Social workers still looked regularly over her shoulder and asked the boys shameful

questions: “Does she feed you? Does she ever try to harm you?” Then one day a visiting social worker

came over. “We’d like to get the boys adopted into homes,” she said. Sensing that the family was about to be split apart yet again, Amy replied, “Fine, then. Call it adoption if you want, but they’re not going anywhere.” To her surprise, the social worker took her remark seriously. She explained that if Amy were to adopt the boys, they would become like any other family.

That night at dinner Amy told the boys about the idea. “Cool!” Joey said. He threw a piece of corn at Adam. His brother flicked it back, and pretty soon corn was flying. Amy rolled her eyes. They didn’t have far to go to be like any other family. As the proceedings(程序)ended, Amy thanked everyone. “No,” the judge responded, “Thank you. You saved three kids. Not many family members would do what you’re doing, especially for this many children. I’m very proud of you.” 

On a lazy spring day, in a modest suburban neighborhood, Amy stood in front of a neatly kept one-story house. She watched her brothers playing basketball, and heard the playful bark of their dog, Tahoe. The young lady had made good on her promise: they had rented a home, a real home, and the boys had gotten their dog. Amy continues to raise her family alone, but has begun taking courses in business management at a nearby community college. Eventually, she hopes to become a child psychologist.

     Some people may say a hero is someone older than you, someone you personally know,
someone who has done something everyone knows about, etc. I don't think a hero necessarily
has to be an older person or a close friend or a family member. My hero is younger than me,
but we are related. His name is Marcus. He is my cousin. He isn't necessarily a wise person
or someone who does something great every day, but he has taught me to appreciate some
of the simple things in life.
     I am now in 11th grade. When I was in 8th grade, Marcus had a brain tumor (脑瘤)
which had to be removed. Thankfully the tumor was benign (良性的). When the doctors
removed it Marcus lost his sight. He felt down only once. Ever since then, he has been an
extremely happy second-grader. He is very typical of a nine-year-old. He likes to tell jokes,
play new games, and he likes to play tricks on people, just like children at his age. I love
spending time with him. We go to movies whenever there is a good one and look after him
every chance I get.
     I say that Marcus helps to appreciate the simple thing in life. He doesn't have his sight and
 that causes me to realize how lucky I am to be able to see, to walk, and to talk. I can do
everything I need to. If everyone could see how happy and satisfied Marcus is and how
much he makes everyone around him happy, then they might just be able to better appreciate
the simple things in life.
