JV is 8 years old and in her own words, this is why she's a beautiful person:
My mom thinks I am beautiful because I am very helpful and I always greet people with a hug and a smile. I love everyone, nature and animals a lot, especially my cat JiJi.
One of my favorite things to do is draw pictures for people I love. My pictures usually have fairies, flowers, bumblebees and hearts in them! I am special and beautiful because I can sing and dance and play music. I love to sing and I spend a lot of time practicing. I can sing a lot of notes and know a lot of beautiful songs.
My friends and family say I am really good at singing and dancing, I dance all the time. I love ballet but I practice a lot of different styles of dance. I love to perform on stage for lots of people. I am always really excited to have my parents see me perform.
Another thing that makes me beautiful is I can play the violin and piano. I love playing the different keys that are high and low. Playing songs and going to concerts makes me happy, especially when I share it with my friends and family.
I love to express myself and share my talents. I am beautiful!
