Speechless. That never happens.

I'm writing another blog post, but until it's ready, check this girl out.

Her name is Gabi Wilson. She's TEN.

I came across her video on my friend Heather's Myspace page and I totally ripped it off.

When I was ten, I was refusing to wear a bra and perfecting my somersault off the top bunk. Never have I felt like such an under-achiever....

me too. I was stunned into silence. Interestingly, I got some pretty negative comments on reddit when I posted this. several people saying "just another kid learning bad habits" and "a flash in the pan." I was like..."whaaaa?" I mean, seriously. In a day and age where we spend so much time focusing our energy on kids with REAL bad habits like violence, drugs and DUIs, I find the success Gabi is experiencing refreshing and worth talking about. I'll take her "flash in the pan" any day over a kid with a rifle.

Tina: hey...my insecurities love company. what can I say? :)

Heather: you ARE the one and only, Ms. Green. I saw her on your page was dumbfounded. She's amazing. And so are you, of course. I still need to do my interview with you. And miss Chels too at some point!
