My sweet, sweet Kaci Jo 💕 This girl is truly incredible.
When I found out that Kaci was my Heart, I was so excited because I just had a feeling we would instantly click—and that feeling was 110% correct. Kaci reminds me so much of myself at her age: a shy girl at first, but once she gets comfortable with her people, she definitely brings the sass. 😉
I loved every event with my Kaci girl, and she brought me so much joy throughout the crazy week. I truly could not have asked for someone better to connect with, and I know a huge part of why Kaci is so amazing is because of her incredible family. Kaci’s sisters, Lexy and Keri Ann, and her mom, Sara, made my week so special as well.
Sara, thank you for raising such an intelligent, confident, driven, and beautiful young woman. Thank you, too, for all of the encouragement and kind words you shared with me throughout the week. This is exactly why the Hearts of Ohio program is so special—it creates relationships like these that truly last a lifetime.
Kaci Jo, I am so beyond proud of you. Not only did you absolutely rock the Miss Ohio stage, but you did it while being 100% yourself. I loved watching you grow throughout the week and seeing your confidence shine. You can’t get rid of me now, because we’re stuck together forever. 💕
Kaci Jo, you are truly my heart. 💗
