“green shoots / growth targets”

So I wanted to draw something bright, something positive, after that last one seemed so drab.

Feeling positive, the work side going well, making friends, getting confidence. The family side on a calm plateau, feeling like I was going to catch my breath.

But teenagers want to fly, want to change. None of us realising the plateau was me clinging to the cliff face, holding us up. Maybe their wings will lift us all.
