Really nice article. Especially nice is the end:

Meissner was signing autographs [at COI] when a little girl came up to her and said she knew who she wanted to be like. Meissner listened, expecting her to say she wanted to be like her.

"I want to be just like Michelle," the little girl told Meissner.

"I laughed and thought, that's exactly who I wanted to be."

Thanks for posting the article. I too liked the ending....

Fresh kid.

One is never too young to learn the art of being polite. Sometimes "candor" is NOT an admirable trait. That little girl Kimmie mentioned - well, I'd best leave it unsaid - just as the kid should have.

Gimmie Kimmie!
