Identify the speaker in a poem

May Beginnings

"What's your favorite day in May?"

Mama asks, stirring the cake

She winks at Daddy as if she didn't know

"Today's his favorite," Daddy whispers low

And after that it gets better

Every day is sunny weather

As school days narrow

I hear crickets, the first spring sparrow

Imaging recess for months

And playmates for lunch

Friends camping overnight

It's my special day and everything's right
