Eunice, just a short note to say thank you for giving us the opportunity to
compete yesterday. Even tough we didn't win, it was a positive
experience. We just started doing shows this year and none of us have
managers (just guidance from my mom) so we're grateful that we got
advice from the professionals you had on your panel. We will certainly
keep in mind everything they said.
We all thank you very much...God Bless!
