How Sweet!!
Beyonce isn’t just using her Tumblr page to share intimate photos from her marriage; she’s also showing love to those who have inspired her along the way, including an 18 year old name Timmy Kelly.
According to an open letter Bey posted on her Tumblr, she met Timmy back in 2007 at The Grammys, when he was just 13. Timmy is blind and living with Cerebral Palsey, but instead of letting those things hold him back, he’s just graduated from high school and has been accepted to a college in Pennsylvania.
In the letter, Beyonce wrote:
“The first time I met Timmy Kelly was in 2007, backstage at the Grammys. He was only 13 and he touched my heart with his voice and his love of music and life. He’s now 18 and he’s graduated high school — I’m so proud of him! Timmy was born blind, and with cerebral palsey. But this never slowed him down — he has proven to everyone, that anything is possible if you believe in yourself and work hard. In Philadelphia, he’s known as the good luck charm to the Eagles and whenever he sings the national anthem before a game they always win. His strength and determination is an inspiration. Timmy was just accepted to Temple University’s Boyer Collegeof Music and Dance. Congratulations Timmy!
Love, B”
