Sometimes in secret, when mom is making breakfast, I grab a handful of fluffy pancake batter and shape it into a miniature frog sitting on its lily pad, trying not to giggle as I slide it onto the countertop.

Sometimes I wake up feeling like a wild mustang – bucking off the soft, worn sheets like they're restraints trying to hold me back, while the morning sunlight pours over me in a gentle, sticky mess. My room's a chaos of stuffed animals and rainbow-colored tangles of yarn but I love it that way.
