Life was hard, but Adrian found his passion when he discovered my old sewing machine at 12. Sewing helped him heal from grief.
By 17, his talent had grown so much that my sister Danielle asked him to design her wedding dress. He poured his heart into it, working late nights to perfect every detail.
But as the wedding approached, Danielle’s praise turned to harsh criticism—and then she excluded Adrian from the guest list, saying it was an adults-only event.
Heartbroken, Adrian decided not to give her the dress. I stood up for him and told Danielle she couldn’t wear it if Adrian wasn’t invited.
We sold the dress to a bride who truly appreciated Adrian’s work. She loved it and praised his talent, even asking him to make her sister’s dress.
Adrian realized Aunt Danielle’s rejection was actually a blessing. That night, he surprised me with dinner, a gift bought with his first earnings—a reminder that he deserves respect and love.
I’m so proud of my son.
