My life as a little person is filled with stories. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents．It has taken many years of 36 my confidence to be able to do that．
I didn’t 37 how short I was until I started school．As time went on，I just tried to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be 38 my whole life．I was determined to make my 39 an advantage rather than a disadvantage．My friends became increasingly 40 . They’d help me up the bus steps．If people were cruel，they would take them aside and 41 them．
42 I lacked in height，I 43 in personality my ability to laugh，even at myself．For example，one time I was 44 the washing machine at my parents’ house to grab the wet clothes．I fell 45 in and yelled for Mother，who was sitting nearby reading the paper．Watching feet 46 everywhere，she laughed and said，“I should leave you in there.” I 47 her．
I’m 47 now，and the 48 have not reduced as I’ve grown older．People ask my friends if I live in a dollhouse．They look 49 when they see me get out of my car on the driver’s side．During those times，I try to keep a good 50 . When people are rude，I 51 myself，“Look what else I have --a great family，nice friends.”
And it’s the children’s questions that make my life 52 ．“Why are you so short? How old are you? Are you a mommy?” When I talk with children，they are left 53 that their questions have been answered．My hope is that in taking time with them，I will 54 them to accept their peers，whatever size and shape they come in， 55 treat them with respect．

I stopped to watch my little girl busy playing in her room. In one hand was a plastic phone; in the other a toy broom. I listened as she was speaking to her doll. And I will never forget the words she said, ever though it was pretended.
She said, “Suzie’s in the corner because she’s not been very good. She didn’t listen to a word I said or do the things she should.” In the corner I saw her baby doll all dressed in lace and pink. It was obvious that she’d been put there to sit alone and think.
My daughter continued her “conversation”, as I sat down on the floor. She said, “I’m all fed up, I just don’t know what to do with her anymore. She cries whenever I have to work and wants to play games, too. She tries to help me with the dishes, but her arms just cannot reach…And she doesn’t know how to fold towels. I don’t have the time to teach. I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean. I don’t have the time to sit and play —don’t you know what I mean?”
And that day I thought a lot about making some changes in my life, as I listened to her words that cut me like a knife. I hadn’t been paying enough attention to what I hold most dear.
But now my attitude has changed, because, in my heart, I realize…I’ve seen the world in a different light through my little darling’s eyes. So, let the cobwebs have the corners and the dustbunnies rule the floor, I’m not going to worry about keeping up with them anymore.
I’m going to fill the house with memories of a child and her mother…For we are granted only one childhood, and we will never get another.
