They never stopped practicing… they never stopped cheering me on and supporting me," the Vogue singer continued. "Their enthusiasm kept me Going!!! They were also going to school and rehearsing every night. !! I am so very proud of all of them."
"I think what my children learned the most this year of rehearsing and performing is that if you who to follow your dreams, you have to work hard for them."
