She's a Big Girl Now - Original Painting
Description
They nurtured her passion to learn. Trips to the library and the local
gallery – they even took her ballet dancing for a couple of weeks
until she decided she wanted to try judo. They dried her tears when
a park swing broke the skin on her knee and when, later, in her teens,
love broke her heart. Now here they are, by her side, celebrating their
pride-and-joy’s happiness and hard work. One day she will return to
teach the kids around here how they – like her – can be weeds in the
street, breaking through their hard surroundings to grow tall.
