Omg I know. The entire Open Troupe was bawling backstage just abouts - and most of the girls in Opening were crying after Val came on before the show and told us all that we must know that all she wanted was for us to dance our best for her. Jeremy all but went into hysterics poor kid. I had tear tracks down my cheeks, it washed away my blush so much that I had to reapply it!

And when she got the standing ovation was just...wow. I cried so, so hard.
