    Wow, this is great. What a cool kid! She is so articulate.

    I love what she said when the interviewer asked her how long she would keep doing it: “As long as it’s fun.”

    I think we can learn a lot from Alice. I know I did!

    Wow, Whats so cool is this will spill over into her life. I custom ordered her flip flops,I told my friends and so on and so on……Each one was special and made a great gift for any age. I would just put a cute beach towel with it to match and put the flip flops on top of the towel with a pretty bow around and it was the hit of the party. My neice gave them as gifts to the girls who stood up in her wedding be for they got there peddies. Thank you! Love you Alice!

    I’d like to see more girls like her on cable news not just tragedies, school shootings, and famous girls going in and out of rehab.
