Roots & Wings

"Roots and Wings" is a heartfelt journey of love, loss, resilience, and self-discovery. Gina, a 24-year-old mother of two, opens her heart to share her life story-one shaped by the strong yet imperfect bonds of family, the profound love of her grandparents, and the lessons learned from being both a daughter and a mother.

Through vivid memories of a childhood rooted in her grandparents' care, the sacrifices of her hardworking single father, and the heartbreak of losing her grandfather while expecting her first child, Gina reflects on the complexities of life and the strength it takes to keep moving forward.

This memoir captures the beauty in life's contradictions: the love found in chaos, the strength born from struggles, and the balance of holding onto the past while reaching for the future. A raw and inspiring account, "Roots and Wings" reminds us that while our roots ground us, our wings give us the courage to soar.
