Cassie, first and foremost, I want you to know how deeply loved and valued you are. Your worth has never been based on what you can do, how much you can carry, or how well you can adapt. You are loved simply because you are you. My prayer is that you would always stay grounded…

Some of the words I associate with you are friendly, fun, confident, and determined. I remember watching you confidently stride across the stage in one of the opening scenes in Aladdin as a sixth grader in your princely costume.
