Being Adopted Means Short-Sleeve Unisex T-Shirt

Being Adopted Means “It takes a lot of courage to grow up and become who you really are" - e.e. cummings was inspired by Suzan Pleva because she believes it reaches so many adoptees, who have never had the chance to be who they really are. They’ve had to stay strong, and fight through all the wrongs done to them, to be still standing, and fighting through to be who they really are.
