She Raised Herself























We raised our own and then
harnessed our elder resources
to another generation. We used to
watch in wonder as she raised herself
from a crawl to fully standing,
teetering only slightly with those
raw, tentative new steps. We bought
for her learning toys and gadgets
to delight, graduated to ipods,
smart phones and laptops. Now,
we just give her cash and she
regales us with the exciting
details of her shopping exploits.
