This is lovely. When my daughter was about 5 she was asked what she wanted to be when she grew up and she answered, in all seriousness, "a butterfly".
She has instead grown up to be an Occupational Therapist.

Sharing my childhood dream to be a horse has been revelatory and joyful! Lots of people have admitted a similar ambition; others wanted to be cars, fire engines or even a potato when they grew up!
