Hi David,

I wanted to comment a while back to your original blog, but had password issues. Let's just say that I am one of your loyal fans who voted for you, during four different periods of time, for the finale and guess what ..... you won!! (I even ended up calling some guy and am still unsure why that happened when the number was on re-dial. Let's just say he wasn't too happy with me). I too balled my eyes out because I was so happy that others agreed with me that you should be our next American Idol.

My younger sister and I caught the Minneapolis show and had a blast! I must say to see all of you in-person was truly amazing and I was particularly pleased to see you. I must say, you are truly talented and it comes out in every thing you do. I was was so glad she and I were able to get such decent seats (on the left side of the stage) at the concert. I must say, you are just a cutie and a sweetheart. You have always been able to make me smile:) Not quite close enough to touch, but close enough to have maybe gotten a smile through my binoculars.

I do hope that you and your family are all doing well. I am looking forward to your new album coming out in a few weeks and I love your new single "Light On."

You are very welcome and I am glad to be able to have been part of your continued success. I think you will be making albums for many years to come and I will be buying them.

Come back to Minnesota soon! We will be at your next show:)
