“Ellie! Ellie! I can’t till your birthday, so here! Open it” 11-year-old Alana shouted on afternoon. She had brought her elder sister Ellie a gift-wrapped box a week before her birthday.
Ellie accepted the box with a smile. However, she asked her sister for help because her arms were too weak that day.
Ellie had cerebral palsy (脑瘫), and she was in a wheelchair. Sometimes, her arms and legs were too weak.
Alana helped her sister with the wrapping, showing a beautiful new Barbie that 12-year-old Ellie looked at closely. Suddenly, her eyes watered, and Alana hugged her tightly, thinking she was happy to receive the gift.
“Isn’t it cool? I saved all my pocket money for it,” Alana proudly said, holding her sister close.
“It’s just… she’s pretty, not like me! I’ll never look like that!” Ellie cried some more.
This was not uncommon. Ellie often cried over not looking like other girls, including her little sister, who was tall and getting more beautiful each day. Her family tried their best to comfort her as she complained about her situation.
“Ellie, think about Natalie. She’s the most beautiful girl ever, and she’s in a wheelchair, just like you!” Alana reminded her.
Natalie was an older girl in their local high school who worked as a model. She had been disabled at a young age, but was now an inspiration to their town.
Ellie and Alana loved Natalie. She was their idol, and their parents had even printed a few pictures off her Instagram so the girls could stick them on their walls.
“You’re right. I must think of Natalie and what she would say in this situation. What do you think she would say?” Ellie asked her little sister. “I think Natalie would encourage us to play with whatever dolls we wanted,” Alana said happily, making Ellie laugh. The tears stopped, and they went to Ellie’s room to play with their Barbies.
A week later, it was finally Elle’s birthday, and she received many amazing gifts. Many people and friends showed up.

It was my 18th birthday and I was looking forward to see my friends. I arrived at my favorite restaurant, waiting for him. We would have the special birthday dinner. I looked for a familiar face but failed. Soon the restaurant was filled customers, none of which were my friends. An hour later, I went back home, lonely and disappointed. To my greatly surprise, I found the door was wide open while I arrived home. Nervous, I walked into the dark room. Suddenly, all the light went on and my friends were turned up, shouting ''surprise''. I had an unforgettable birthday.

Last year, my family and I decide to go to Sanya celebrate my birthday. The beach was such clean that I wanted to go there as soon as we arrived. We travelled around the island, taken a lot of pictures. We had lunch at one of the small restaurant by the sea. The food was very delicious and fresh, especially seafood. My parents gave me an ice cream cake, but my sister gave me a present that she made it by herself. Everyone at the restaurant said Happy Birthday for me. It was the very impressively birthday for me. l am looking forward to go there again.
