I loved it when Taylor's dad was crying, for a change.
Very sweet!!

That was sweet!! Taylor's dad had such a very serious expression, tears streaking his face ... deep emotions there, for sure. Looks like Taylor comes from a fine family. BTW, was that his brother they kept showing close to the parents? Kind of chunky, blond with a ponytail (I think)?

Late last night I heard someone say that Taylor told them he thought his knees would buckle and he would fall to the floor when Ryan called his name.

You can see him double over. He said he just told himself, DON'T FALL DOWN.

What a night it was. Taylor gave us a wonderful trip thru American Idol this year. In the end he won America's heart and I can't wait to get his single.
