Her papa really inspires her. Her papa passed away 2 years ago and she was the only granddaughter and they had a special bond. He was always in awe at everything she did always telling her how proud he was at the young lady she was becoming. He enjoyed watching her dance and tumble and listen to her read and loved how she always asked questions! She keeps his picture next to her bed and gives him a kiss every night and knows that he is watching over her as she works daily to make him proud
We are so proud of her comeback story. One of her last meets she was not a favorite of the judges but her coaches felt she did fantastic but her scores were not reflecting her performance. At 9 years old that was a tough pill to swallow and instead of quitting she turned it around and put in extra work and didn’t let her scores get her down. Then in May she went off to compete at the USA gymnastics state meet and won 1st place over all for Illinois at the age of 10!
