Unbelievable Strength and Vitality

Terri and Bindi Irwin on The Late Show With David Letterman

Did you get to see this little girl in action? She is so composed and articulate. You could tell she really thought about her answers and wasn't simply regurgitating what she'd been told to say. Her positive energy and enthusiasm really remind me of her dad and I don't feel like she's being used for commercial reasons. I sincerely believe that she wants to carry out her dad's work because clearly she respected him and enjoys doing the kinds of things he did. And I'm most impressed with her mom who, as with her husband, lets her daughter have the limelight and only jumps in to rescue her when Bindy indicates she needs a little help. It's the coolest thing to watch these two together. I really wish the best for this family and it's hard to believe it's only been 4 months. Wow.

Enjoy this typically awesome interview by Letterman. You can really tell that he's impressed with the little girl, too. Too cool...
