My dad is a software engineer and has been my whole life. When I was a kid, he and my grandpa always surrounded me with computers. They got me my first computer (and Acer laptop that came stock with .5GB of ram - later upgraded to a whopping 1 full GB) and my dad installed Visual Studio on it.
I loved computers but really started writing code regularly when I was 13 and knew it was what I wanted to do. Once I got to college (for Computer Science), I realized how deep it went and I loved it all even more. Now I'm a software engineer and I regularly think about how lucky I am to work a job I love that pays well.
