Tarenne, Nicholasville, KY

Hi! My name is Tarenne. I am 4 and a half years old and live in Nicholasville, KY. I have three sisters, and we love to play together. I really love going to dance class and performing on stage.

I hope to always be a good sister and friend, and to continue to bring joy to those around me. I hope I can help people see God's goodness through my sweet personality!

I have participated in a Buddy Walk every year since I was 18 months old. My family has attended walks in Indianapolis and Cincinnati, and now we are preparing to attend the Lexington, KY, walk for the second year in a row. Last year, all the members of my Buddy Walk team put masks up to their faces to look like me! I loved it - it made me so happy!

I am proud that I am already allowed to make decisions for myself. My mom wanted me to play soccer with my big sister this fall, and I said,  "No, Mom--more dancing!" So Mommy excitedly signed me up for dance classes again!
