Butterfly Quote by Edith Bowman

“My parents have been incredibly supportive of me. They've always stood by me, whatever my decisions. When I was younger, I was like a butterfly flitting from one thing to the next - be it gymnastics, karate or piano lessons. They never forced me into anything.” quote by Edith Bowman — Download Open image
