I Achieved Part of my Childhood Dream

When I was eight I had a dream
It was an epic dream that lasted a year
I would have an orphanage, a dog and cat hospital
My own world, my own newspaper

I have adopted nineteen dogs and thirteen cats
So, I have achieved some of this dream
We took in a teenage girl after she was thrown out by her parents
I spoke to her mother and asked if we could take care of her
The answer was yes

I guess I achieved part of this dream
