One of the girls had a bandage on her arm with lyrics from Swift’s song “Cardigan” written on top, symbolizing the emotional impact of the meeting. In the caption of the video, the girls’ mother expressed her gratitude to Swift and her mom, Andrea, for creating a magical night for her daughters. She thanked them for bringing “Hope & Autumn pure happiness” and making the evening unforgettable.
