My wife and I had just finished the 150-mile trip home from our daughter's college. It was the first time in our lives that she would go away for any length of 1 . We wondered how other people had 2 it.
Later in bed, I 3 the time I started college. My father had driven me, too. My mother had to stay 4 to keep the cattle from getting into the crops. I, the fourth in a line of brothers, was the first to 5 college.
The truck was slow, and I was glad. I didn't want to get to 6 too soon. I shook hands with my father in the truck and he didn't say a word. But I knew he was going to make a little 7 . He finally said, “I never went to college and 8 of your brothers went to college. I can't say don't do this or that, because everything is 9 and I don't know what is going to 10 , but I think things will work out. When you get a job, be sure to be 11 and work hard. ”I knew that soon I would be 12 in the big town and I would be 13 the life.
Then my father brought out the Bible (圣经) that he had read so 14 . I knew that he would miss it and I must 15 it. He just said, “This can help you if you will let it. ”
When I finished school I took the Bible back to my father. But he said he wanted me to 16 it.
Now, too late, I remember. It would have been so 17 to give it to my daughter when she got out of the car. But I didn't. I could give her 18 . My father could give me only a Bible. But I don't really believe now that I gave her 19 as much as my father gave me. So the next morning I 20 up the book and sent it to her. I wrote a note. “This can help you. ”I said. “If you will let it.”

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.
