BAILEE'S SPECIAL DAY
You can read the email from her Mom that she sent me last night. I've copied it below.
Congratulations Bailee. We are so very proud of you sweetheart. I'm most proud of your title that you won for "PRETTIEST SMILE!" I truly believe that as people, we can change the world with a smile and you are definitely doing your part in that process. As I've told you before, it is your smile that inspires me. It is your vibrance that encourages me in regards to Kenidi and her special needs. As a Mother, there is nothing more gratifying than to see and know someone with similar struggles as my own child, make it thru life in the exciting way that you have thus far. Thank you for always being my reminder that there is HOPE for Kenidi. Thank you for being the exception to the rule and standing out. There is an old famous quote that I love by Coco Chanel that reads..."In order to be irreplaceable, one must be different!"
And you Bailee...my dear, sweet, friend...are truly irreplaceable in this life. You have made footsteps for the rest of us to follow in. So rejoice and be different! And as you go thru life and receive some possible not so friendly looks, remind others with your actions, your character, and your integrity that in order to be irreplaceable...one must be different. Then, ROCK that difference sweet girl!
Oh and one other thing. As you already know...I love Audrey Hepburn. In fact, we are painting little Miss Kenidi's room today. Once the paint dries, I have a famous quote from Audrey Hepburn that is going on her wall in there. That quote reads:
"A girl should be two things. Classy and Fabulous!" And you are both Bailee! Classy and Fabulous! Congrats again. You made our day!
xoxoxo, Angie

YAY, BAILEE!!! I was so proud looking at those pictures. Bailee, you looked perfect head to toe! Beautiful hair, eyes, smile, and I loved your dress! Most of all, your INNER beauty shines the brightest!
You got some not so nice looks from some girls? OH WELL! Miss Angie has gotten a few not so nice looks from girls over the years, too, I bet! I know I have! Some girls bring light into the world by smiling their BEAUTIFUL smile like you and some well..........they just spread cranky face. ;-)
My 4 year old son Brendon has CP and I am so encouraged and inspired by you. He loves to look at the pretty girl on the computer.....you should see this 4 year old "ladies man" try to kiss the computer screen! haha
Take care,
Melissa
Bailee- I hope you know how special, beautiful, wonderful and an example of what a true beauty is! Clearly those judges did too! Congratulations! And about those other girls- just ignore them! After all- you won the prize- and that came from the inside!

Dearest Bailee , We were so proud of you during your beauty pageant this Saturday ( as always ) !!! You looked sooooooooooooooo " Beautiful " and when you walked out on that stage you had such an " Awesome Glow " that surrounded you it was if you had " Angel Wings " around your shoulders !!! I could feel the prayers of so many peeple lifing you up ( thanks Angie to you and ALL your blogger friends for being part of her prayer team ) !!
We have never seen you walk with such " confidence , peace , and strength " and your Smile was " Heaven " sent !!! Bailee , keep putting Jesus first and always keep that beautiful smile and sweet attitude and God will continue to use you and take you places you won't beleive !!!

Congratulations Bailee. I am so happy for you. Seeing you on that stage with your walker absolutely made my heart do HUGE flip flops. And that smile, WOW.

We are BLESSED beyond words by all of you!!!!! Thank you for loving Bailee, for praying for Bailee, and for standing behind Bailee!!! It was through your prayers that on Saturday Bailee had a calm and peace about her that I cannot even put into words! All of you AGD friends are the BEST!!!!!! God truly knew what he was doing when he brought Mrs. Angie and her family into our lives. We have never been the same since. Angie, I love the quote by Coco Chanel!! WOW!!!! The picture of the girls from behind would be an awesome inspirational poster! Angie, THANK YOU for all of the encouragement you give to Bailee!!!! It really stays with her and helps her through this life that can really be tough on her at times. WE LOVE YOU MRS. ANGIE AND ALL OF OUR AGD FRIENDS!!!!!! You all have a wonderful day!!!!!!!

Tears Tears! So So BEAUTIFUL! I could not keep from crying while reading this blog and all the nice posts. There is a guy here at the IU Simon Cancer Center that has CP. When Angie was doing the shoe drive, I told him he should invent some shoes for people with CP. He said he would work on it. He has been a volunteer here for like 28 years. When I showed him your beautiful pictures, he just couldn't believe how beautiful you are, and neither could I!!! You Rocked that place girl. So proud of you! Congratulations!
