I am from a big family, where we have as much fun as toddlers making a tower of toys. 

I am from watching my parents, looking up to them as roles models.

I am from watching my sister grow up and playing pointless games with my brother.

I am from the times I stay up late with my sister just so we can spend time together.

I am from the little things my mom and I do together, like staying home and having fun like two teenage best friends. 

I am from my best friends who complete me and showed me what true friendship really is.

I am from my teddy bear and blanket that I still can't live without.

I am from taking pictures which will never change, even when time passes.

I am from staying home on Sunday afternoons to watch the Browns games with my dad.

I am from orange and brown, the colors of the Browns, who I will always be a fan of, whether they win or lose.

I am from all mistakes which have pulled me down, but I am also from success that I worked hard for, which has picked me back up.

  3. Your poem has a lot of great things in your life mentioned. It's great to see that you still need your blanket and teddy as they have been and are a part of your life.

  6. Sydney, great post. I like that you include your dad and the times you spend with him. Make sure that your simile compares two unlike things.
