My New Friends



My parents were in town and were able to come enjoy the event. My mother was my hairdresser for the day. It was just like old times. No matter how old I get, my mother will always get nervous when I’m competing. She is so funny! The competition consisted of a platform speech competition (my platform is supporting cancer research), interview, evening gown, and on-stage interview.
I was so excited to win this pageant! The best part about winning is getting to meet and spend time with all of my “sister” Queens. They range in age from babies to adults (that’s me). All of the little girls are cute and sweet. We’ll be participating in parades and other community events together.
I want to spend this year encouraging my “sister” Queens to dream big and never let anyone or anything stop them from pursuing those dreams! I want to encourage them that women can do great things! I hope to encourage them to not be afraid to pursue careers that might not typically be thought of as careers for women. I don’t want them to ever let society put boundaries on their dreams and desires! This is what I want for all young girls. I want them to feel important, smart, and loved!
