While looking at the carefully chosen wallpaper, I remembered back to that day, not so long before, when this adventure first began.

It was a cold October day. While leaving the school, my mother mentioned that she had gone to the doctor that day. "What for?" I asked, becoming nervous so I __2__ through all the problems in my mind. I wondered what problems my mother could possibly have.

"Well…" She stopped and my worry __3__ . "I'm pregnant."

"You're what?"

"I am having a baby."

I was speechless. I couldn't believe this happened to my parents when I was already in junior high school. It hit me that I would have to __4__ my mother, the mother who had been all my own for 14 years! I'd never wanted my mother to have another child after she had me. This was a selfish feeling, but when it came to my mom, I was unwilling to share even the smallest bit of her.

It was the most unbelievable experience of my life, being in the delivery room that day, for birth is truly a miracle（奇迹）, full of happiness and expectation. When the doctor said that it was a girl, I cried. I had a baby sister, Emma.

All my fears and insecurities have passed now. I cannot explain how especial it is to have a __8__ person who wakes up with me and wave her little hand good-bye to me as I leave for school.

Now I realize there is plenty of love in my home for Emma. My fear and anger had been eased with the realization that she took away _9__ . Instead, she brought so much to my life. I never thought I could love a baby this much, and I would not _10__ the joy I get from being her big sister.
