The Best Someone Could Ask For


It started with the love of stuffed animals

Style from disney princesses and sparkly clothes from justice

Growing up with the sunshine and ocean breeze

Surrounded by seagulls at the beach

Running at the birds and chasing them down the beach

Happiness, laughter, and cheer was always there

The best parts of the year were the warm nights on 4th of July

Sitting together with blankets, eating smores, and watching the show in front of us

The Sundays watching football with anticipation rising each game

Hoping that we get to see the red and gold in the final game

The best Nancy and Tyler I know 

Teaching me to surround myself with their light and drive

Appreciating my roots of california from north and south

From my dad loves of the 49ers to my homeland’s passion of the Padres

The time my family ate Mcdonalds on thanksgiving

But it didn’t matter because we had each other
