My fellow FReepers. My granddaughter, Grace, is one of three semifinalists competing for a modeling position with a company that makes dancing apparel. The company, California Kisses, is located in Irvine California and they are allowing anyone to vote. There will be three contestants a Month for February, March, and April, for a total of nine contestants. My beautiful and most talented granddaughter, Grace, is one of the first three competing against each other for the Month of February. That is where I need your assistance, to vote and vote often for her. I told my daughter we could help Grace win this.

ready for class
I beg you to vote for Grace by following this link or by clicking on any picture.
The links will take you to Grace's profile page where you can vote for her. You do not have to register, just click the vote button towards the bottom right of her picture. They made it simple by not having any tracking software other than checking for cookies to keep people from voting more than once.
Since I became a FReeper in February of 1998 I have joined together with you, my fellow FReepers, to change the outcome of various polls. Through the years we have proven that, when thousands of us vote together, we make a difference. Today, I humbly come before you, with my proverbial hat in hand, to beg and plead for you to help fulfill my granddaughters wish of winning the model search contest. If she does wins for February, then each girl who won their perspective Month will compete against each other.

granddaughter Grace
In June we will learn if your vote helped her win the semi final. If she does, I will then come back to plead and beg you to vote for her one more time so she can win the contest and become the next California Kisses model for 2014.
My granddaughter is only 11 years old, but she has been training for more than 7 years to become the best dancer she can be. Here is a video to see how good she is already (If I Die young). Her ultimate dream is to be a professional dancer, either in LA or NYC as a commercial or Broadway dancer. Even if she fails to become a dancer at the level she dreams of, she would then like to travel and teach other young girls to dance. Right now she trains with the best dance studio in Texas, the Rise Dance Company in Round Rock. She has even had lessons with one of the best choreographers in the business, Kevin "Tokyo" Inouye.

My granddaughters career is before her, but she has already done modeling in and around Austin Tx where she lives, but winning the California Kisses model Search competition will help advance her future plans along with helping her parents pay for her college tuition. After all, 7 years is not that far away, and the price of a good school is just going to be more and more expensive as the years go by.
So, without any further rambling on by this proud grandfather, I ask again to please vote for my granddaughter to win. There is no registering at the site and I made it very simple to get there. Just click on any picture below and it will take you to Grace's profile page where you can vote. Below is a screen shot that I edited to show where the vote button is, and after you finish a thank you will pop up to let you know you voted.
pls. see my response to this.
Hey Tyra Banks says you gotta be willing to take it all off for the public to be a model and at 11, she is “of age” for the perverts in Kalipornia.
I would not let any kid I know get into any part of showbiz, if I had any say in the matter.
I voted anyways
Done.
Voted. Good luck!
I voted for Grace.
Voted! Hope she wins. She is beautiful.
Yes I read it. Thanks.
What a pretty young lady! You should be proud. Voted.
Voted.
She plans on being a ballet dancer.
Not a model.
This is just to help pay the bills while she is still training.
I do hear what your saying GeronL, and I am not without my reservations about it. I trust my daughter to do right for her though.
Once grace becomes an adult we can only pray that the lessons from her good parents stick with her.
thanks for posting what I was thinking. Meat markets for young girls.
I voted for her! Good luck!
Grace got my vote!
I’ll try and vote on other devices, later ;)
Good luck, Gracie!!
Done! My granddaughter is a dancer too!
I helped stuff the ballot box ... pretty girl!
I’ve just voted. Good luck. I hope she wins this one. She looks beautiful and stunning in those pictures.
I’ve also posted the link to the profile in my Twitter feed. We’ll see if we can win this one for her.
Wow thanks.
I’ll do it. As someone who has been in the same situation with my daughter (singer-songwriter), I understand how important these things can be.
