That's beautiful I love her flowers and her pearls and I loved everybody's little flower dresses and I think that was the best program ever that you guys got going there

[@stephanieanderson8546]

And I think that was very kind of you to come over and visit

I was there. Crazy. I never saw news stories about it. I was in either fourth or fifth grade.

I was in second grade. I never saw the footage either, until now. It blows my mind thinking about it.
