Climbing big stairs can be hard work....

She is a fun and sweet puppy!!

New Addition to the Family
Sometimes you fall in love with something you know is going to cause you to swear.
We can't wait to pick up this little girl on Memorial Day!!!

PLEASE VOTE
Kenzie's Crazy in Love video has been nominated for an
Audience Award.
She doesn't like to BEG people to:
*buy a ticket for her show
*donate to a kickstarter
*or vote for her video...
She HATES forcing herself on people.
So when I saw that she was nominated,
I knew we were looking at an up hill battle for her to win.
I would love to show her that people really do like
her sound, style, music, etc.
If you wouldn't mind voting for her as often as you want...
It would mean a lot to me
(and help me in my quest to get her to audition for the last season of American Idol.)
Thank you in advance!!!
My Rant
I bravely ranted on Facebook and was scared to death to voice my concern/experience for fear that it would HURT Kenz and her opportunities to sing.
I am grateful for other parents who understand why a mom feels sad when their child is treated poorly.
I was amazed at who left comments and surprised by those who DIDN'T.
But I have be reminded that there are KIND, GOOD, GRACIOUS, LOVING people in this world that will stand up for RESPECT, KINDNESS, MANNERS, and EACH OTHER.
Here is my Rant:
Can I be a "mama bear" and RANT for a moment? I hope I don't offend ...
Kenz opened for a popular band recently. She was a little hesitant to take the show because she predicted THIS would happen and she wasn't sure she wanted to repeat the "beating". But I personally LOVE this particular band and felt like it was a privilege to open for them. So I encouraged her to take the show.
Granted - I am videotaping her in the back where people are more comfortable to talk to each other. Kenz rehearsed this song and was SO EXCITED to try it ... But listen to this audience. I realize the crowd was there to hear the band not kenz... but really? Haven't we been taught to be polite to any performer? Even the man doing sound at this show kept trying to "quiet" the audience, getting off of his podium to abruptly "hush" certain people. Not knowing I was her mom, he turned to me and said - "this is so rude". Her drummer just shook his head in disbelief. It broke my heart.
She occasionally gets private messages from people apologizing for others - I just hope we will all stop and think twice about our actions when someone is on stage.
End of RANT... I am sure I will remove this post (per Kenzie's request after she sees it)... sorry if I offended..
