But most importantly, in the future...

My daughter Brynn wrote this poem for a school assignment. I love it more each time I read it; and I thought that you might enjoy it too. ;)

When I was a little girl I lived in a far away place called Riverside, California.
I was short and I couldn't see out the window.
I used to have really long hair.
I used to draw pictures for my parents and read Dr. Suess books.
When I was a little girl I liked tigers and Harry Potter.

Here I am now, my name is Taylor Brynn Caddel and I am almost 16.
I live in Corona, California.
At the height of 5'4" I can see out the window, but I can't see over the fence.
Sometimes my hair is big and sometimes it's really wavy.
I am a vegan. I make music, draw maps, and read books.
Here I am now, and I love tigers and Harry Potter.

In the future I want to live in far away place called the United Kingdom.
I will be taller and will be able see out the window and past the fence.
I want to be a musician and a part-time 00 agent, tiger, and pirate.
I will still be a vegan.
I will always love tigers and Harry Potter.
But most importantly, in the future ...

I want to be happy.
:)
