You are my little girl（你是我的小女孩儿）

You are my little girl（你是我的小女孩）
I grew up knowing I was different，And I hated it，I was born with a misshapen lip，When my schoolmates asked，“What happened to your lip？”，I'd tell them i'd fallen and cut it on a piece of glass，Somehow it seemed more acceptable to have suffered an accident than to have been born different，I was sure that no one outside my family could love me，Or even liked me，Then i entered MRS. leonard's second-grade class.
MRS. leonard was round and pretty，With shining brown hair and warm ，dark ，smiling eyes，Everyone adored her，But no one came to love her more than i did，And for a special reason.
The time came for the hearing tests given at our school，I could only just hear out of one ear，And was not about to reveal something else that would single me out as different，So i cheated.
The“ whisper test ”required each child to go to the classroom door，Turn sideways，Close one ear with a finger，While the teacher whispered something from her desk，Which the child repeated，Then the same for the other ear，Nobody checked how tightly the untested ear was covered，So i only pretended to block mine.
As usual I was the last，But all through the testing I wondered what Mrs. Leonard might Say to me，I knew from previous years that the teacher whispered things like“ the sky is blue .”or “do you have new shoes？”
My time came . I turned my bad ear toward her，Plugging up the other just enough to be able to hear，I waited and then came the words that God had surely put into her mouth，Seven words that changed my life forever.
Mrs. leonard， the teacher I adored，Said softly，“I wish you were my little girl.”
你是我的小女孩
当我长大时，我知道我和别人不同，我讨厌这样，我生下来时就是唇裂，当我的同学问我，“你的嘴唇怎么了？”我会告诉他们，我摔倒了，是一片玻璃划的，不知为什么，讲它是由于事故造成的，比说是天生的要更容易接受，我确信在家庭成员之外，没有一个人喜欢我，更甭提爱我了，后来我在二年级时进了雷纳德女士的班。
雷纳德女士有点胖，但是很漂亮，有着一头闪亮的金发和总是热情微笑着的乌黑的眼睛，每个人都敬重她，但是没有一个人比我更爱他，这是因为有特殊的原因。
我们学校该测试听力了，我只有一个耳朵能听见，我并不想再泄露一件可以挑出我是与别人不同的事情，所以我想作弊。
这种低语测试，要求每一个学生走到教室门口，转过身去，用手指堵住一只耳朵。这时，老师在讲台那，小声说句话，让孩子重复，然后是另外一只耳朵。没有人检查那只没被测试的耳朵是否被堵严，所以我就假装堵上了我的耳朵。
一般来讲，我是最后一个，但是在整个测试过程中，我都在想雷纳德女士会对我说什么，我从以前的测试知道老师一般讲：“天是蓝的，”或者是“你有一双新鞋吗？”
该轮到我了，我把那只坏耳朵转向他，堵着的那只耳朵恰恰能听到他所说的，我等待着，然后听到了那句话，那一定是上帝让他讲给我听的，七个字改变了我的一生。
雷纳德女士，我所敬仰的老师，温和的讲，“我真的希望你是我的小女孩。”
