keeping in mind that the vertex is between the focus point and the directrix, in this cases we have the focus point above the directrix, meaning is a vertical parabola opening upwards, Check the picture below, which means the "x" is the squared variable.
now, the vertical distance from the focus point to the directrix is 
, which means the distance "p" is half that or 1/8, and is positive since it's opening upwards.
since the vertex is 1/8 above the directrix, that puts the vertex at 
, meaning the y-coordinate for the vertex is 2.
