When I was young, my mom and dad did their best to provide for our family.
I truly hope you enjoy my story..
Parchita is what inspired me to write this book.
The word for patches in Spanish is parches.
My mom would either sew patches to cover up holes from overuse and she would also sew fabric to the bottom of each pant leg to make them longer.
However, I grew taller and my pants unfortunately didn\'t.
I remember finding a pair of pants in one of the boxes which fit me perfectly.
Neighbors and our church would sometimes give us clothing.
Money was scarce.
