A
Rising above the names
I was shopping in the supermarket when I heard a young voice.
“Mom, come here! There’s this lady here my size!”
The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize.
I smiled and told her, “It’s okay.” Then talked to the boy, “Hi, I’m Darry Kramer.How are you?”
He studied me from head to toe, and asked, “Are you a little mommy?”
“Yes, I have a son,” I answered.
“Why are you so little?” he asked.
“It’s the way I was born,” I said.“Some people are little.Some are tall.I’m just not going to grow any bigger.” After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy’s hand and left.
My life as a little person is filled with stories like that.I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents.
It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness.I stand three feet nine inches tall.I was born an achondroplasia dwarf (侏儒).Despite this, I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up.
I didn’t realize how short I was until I started school.Some kids picked on me, calling me names.Then I knew.I began to hate the first day of school each year.New students would always stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs.
But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life.I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage.What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality.
I’m 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as I’ve grown older.People are amazed when they see me driving.I try to keep a good attitude.When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have – a great family, nice friends.”
It’s the children’s questions that make my life special.I enjoy answering their questions.My hope is that I will encourage them to accept their peers (a person of the same age, class, position, etc.), whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect.

Stopping by Woods on A Snowy Evening
By Robert Frost
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer(奇怪的)
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness(马笼头)bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake(鹅毛般雪花).
The woods are lovely,dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
