Paul Bentley Wederski



I have my very own Billy Elliott.

His name is Paul Bentley Wederski. He's the son of a directional oil driller. Lives in the country, 10 miles outside of town. He's one of the only a handful of boy ballet dancers in Fremont County, Wyoming.

He's sometimes shy when you first get to talking. But, soon you'll learn he wants to be an actor. A dancer. A world traveler. He played Elvis in his last school production. And, don't forget, he's going on 12 in May.

I found this picture from my last trip home. Love you, cuz. Keep on being you.
