Sometimes Dreams Do Come True

HydrantHydrant Posts: 7,773 ✭✭✭✭✭

The picture of the little girl in my avatar is Hydrantette Nicole. She was 4/5 years old in that photo. She will be 10 in January. Her dream and goal in life is to be a dancer and a Rams cheerleader. She wears her Rams cheerleader uniform to the games. And always has her blue and gold pom-poms. She cheers the Rams for the entire game. When the Rams cheerleaders do their routines, she dances right along with them and copies every move. Sometimes I don't like that part. Well.....last night at the game Nikki caught the attention of a very nice lady who was sitting in front of us. It turns out that the lady is the mother of a Rams cheerleader. After the game the lady came over to Nikki and the two of them just hit it off. The lady is going to send Nikki an official Rams cheerleader uniform.....and......that's not all! Look for Nikki to make her on field debut at the 49ers game. It was a wonderful ending to a fabulous night at the game......Sometimes dreams do come true.

    Is she really going to dance at the 49ers game on the field?

    It's a possibility. The uniform is "Guaranteed." The rest of it has to be looked into. Nikki will be the guest of a cheerleader before the game. We shall see. Either way....one little girl left the game last night walking on air!

    Wow

    You know they make diddly for each game.

    The Hydrantette needs a career that allows a sideline (ha!) job of Rams cheer.

    Praise that cheerleader much and often.

    The Lovely Mrs. Hydrant did ask, (leave it to her!)......"Do the cheerleaders get paid?"........Oh,....GAWD! WHY??

    She's always looking for an angle........💁💰

    They may as well get paid nothing for what little they make

    Hey, MsMorrisine....we have something in common!! I have a geisha doll that was given to me in 1967! A Japanese girl gave it to me. I loved her then.....I love her now.....Anyway.....she told me...NOT to put it under glass.....for some reason??? The doll is on proud display right now in the Hydrant house!...
    .... gathering 50+ years of dust. It's beautiful.... And......the young lady gave me a traditional kimono.....7 layers!!!....Her name is Haruko Takizawa. She would be 71 years old now. She gave me the gifts when she was 16. She was my first love. I think of her every day...Happy...funny....wonderful girl. Because of her, I knew how to find The Lovely Mrs. Hydrant. I hope Haruko is still alive, somewhere in Japan.

    Correction..... I just went to look.....the geisha doll is gone. Little Hydrantette Jenny, 3 years old, loved that doll. Looked at it all the time. Now it's gone. Who knows where....Gone With The Wind. I think I know who the responsible party is. 👶 The Lovely Mrs. Hydrant pleads ignorance......I know better.....Oh, well....the memories remain. Merry Christmas!😵

    Perhaps the lovely Mrs. Hydrant threw it out. No one wants to compete with a memory.
