I cannot remember my very first days, but I got attention in so many ways. When I was first born I was very small. I couldn’t really do much at all. 4 5 And as the months passed I grew and grew. I learned many things, as all babies do. I learned to sit and I learned to stand. And I finally walked, holding someone’s hand. Now I can talk and walk on my own. And everyone says, “Oh, look how you’ve grown!” 6 7 There are lots of things I can do by myself, like tie my shoes and reach a high shelf. I can pick out the clothes that I want to wear. I can dress myself and comb my hair. I can talk to my friends and my family too. I can tell them exactly what I want to do. 8 9 I have grown a lot. I will grow a lot more. I will change and be different than I was before. But no matter how big I grow to be, one thing won’t change—I will always be me. But what makes me ME? Let’s see! 10 11 Being me begins with my name.
