| JungMun Choi A Special Gift from the SkyIt was one beautiful day.Sky so clear, sun so bright,
 Cool winter breeze blowing,
 Making the day fresher than ever.
 
 Twenty days before my eighth birthday,
 I still remember very clearly.
 A start of new life with
 A special gift from the sky.
 
 When I laid my eyes on a baby inside my mom’s arm,
 The world around me became silent all of sudden,
 As if we were the only two people in this room.
 
 I could feel all my senses focusing on one thing,
 On a baby too young to even open her eyes.
 I couldn’t take my eyes off of her,
 A small baby who has my nose and my lips.
 
 To a seven-year old little girl,
 Everything seemed like a magic.
 A magical gift from the sky
 And my greatest wish coming true.
 
 With the most joyful smile on my face,
 I thought that the sky sent me the greatest birthday gift ever.
 
 A small baby who looks a lot like me,
 A small baby who will bring joy to our family.
 My one and only loving sister.
