Emma's Blog
Hi, Emma here!
Today, I'm looking at pictures of my mom and her brother and sister over the years. Physical appearance is important to them and they always look good. But they look different in every picture!
When my mom was a young girl, she was short and overweight with dark brown, curly hair, and glasses. When she was eighteen, she was tall and slim. Her hair was different, too. It was short, red, and wavy!
Mom's brother, my Uncle Joe, was also overweight when he was a boy. His hair was short, brown, and straight. When he was a teenager, his hair was shoulder-length and blond, and he was slim.
Their big sister, Rachel, was always very tall and slim. As a child, her hair was long, dark brown, and very curly. But as a teenager, it was straight!
Today, they look very different. Mom and Aunt Rachel have long, blond straight hair, and Uncle Joe is bald! Mom and Uncle Joe aren't very slim now, and Uncle Joe wears glasses, too. Aunt Rachel is still very slim.
My physical appearance is important to me, too. Sometimes I don't feel happy about it – I have braces and I don't like them very much. But there are good things, too. I'm pretty slim and I like my big, brown eyes. Mom, Uncle Joe, and Aunt Rachel always tell me that personality is important, and I hope I'm nice and friendly, like them.
