Write a  sweet short story about a little girl that lives down the lane.
Once upon a time, a shy little girl named Nelly lived down the lane with her parents. Nelly had always been too scared to explore past the front of her house, so she had missed out on the big, wide world waiting just beyond. One day, Nelly mustered up the courage to take a few steps out of her front door. She felt scared and excited at the same time. She kept walking until she reached the end of the lane!

Nelly couldn't believe her eyes! She saw a meadow filled with colorful flowers, a sparkling stream, and in the distance, a tall mountain. She decided to explore further and eagerly took her first steps into the great outdoors. As she walked, Nelly discovered new and exciting things, such as a log to climb over, a butterfly to chase, and a pond to splash in.

It was a magical day, and from that day onwards, Nelly never backed away from an adventure!
