Emily Burk

I was 10 when Emily was introduced to our family.As a young a baby Emily hardly rememberes when we adopted her but now she can't stop but ask questions. I remember it like it was yesterday.

"Mom! Robby keeps poking me!" called a voice from the back of the car, namley me sister Jackie. "Robby! Stop poking you sister!" my mom called back sternly. I, wanting no part of the argument, looked out the window at the passing sites. 'A baby sister' I thought ' as if I don't have enough on my hands with these two'. I glanced at my siblings, twins, who were now poking and flicking eachother. ' My gosh' I thought ' Me, twins, and now a new adopted baby sister' I rolled my eyes ' How's mom gonna do it?'

We arrived at the airport just in time to catch our flight. Jackie had gotten sick on the ride because Robby had given her strwberries, which he specificly knew she was allergic to. I rushed up to the attendant, bag and suitcase in hand, and quickly gave her the tickets while my family rushed into the conecter "Mom!" I called "as the plane was taxing down the runway, "Was that our flight?" "No honey" was her relpy but as sonn as she looked out the window again she pointed "That is" A huge jet liner taxied down the runway and then took off into the air.
