Thank you so much.
I just have one question.
Is it correct to say "enthusiastically wanting to go there, she'll tell her mother"?

I wouldn't say it's grammatically incorrect, but it's not a natural sentence at all. People are usually enthusiastic about doing something, not about wanting to do something.
She'll tell her mother because she's enthusiastic about going there.
She'll tell her mother because she wants to go there.
She'll tell her mother because she's anxious to go there.
She'll tell her mother because she's enthusiastic about going there.
She'll tell her mother because she wants to go there.
She'll tell her mother because she's anxious to go there.

The first doesn't work at all. The second is better, though I'd add a comma after hurt.
