Miriam came down to Leesville from Pineville for her senior session with me. I am so thrilled not only that I was able to do her senior photos, but also that I was able to meet such a lovely young woman. This lady is a musician and not the kind that I claim to be (singing in the shower and the car is perfectly legitimate). She sings, plays the drums, and piano, and a plethora of other things. I’m fairly confident that if I had handed her two spoons she would have started a street concert. I’m in awe of people who dedicate themselves to their passions so completely.

Miriam graduated from Pineville High School and is headed off to school in the fall. I’m so excited to see what her future holds and how her story will unfold. Miriam, remember to hold on to that passion and let it lead you through. Always hold yourself to high standards and continue to raise the bar, just so you can surpass it. Congratulations!

PS – I don’t watch American Idol, never have, but if you ever find yourself on that stage or one even more worthy, I’ll be cheering you on!

With love,

Melissa
