I just HAVE to post this in the case there is a remote chance you read these posts. My mom is a single mom that works full-time and is studying for her master part-time AND is putting my sister through medical school. I of course help where I can but I HAVE to tell you this is a woman who works like a dog and has absolutely NO time to herself or to relax...yet watching your performances on american idol (even if she had to fast foward to your performance) has brought her so much joy. She really is a HUGE fan. When they announced you as the winner of American Idol she was in her room hollering and jumping up and down. I think it's absolutely amazing how happy your songs make her and how happy she is for you and all of your success. Needless to say, we'll be going to your first concert and buying your CD. I just really wanted to share that with you!
