Even though my reign is over, Iโm still being an advocate and assisting single parent households as well as providing blessing bags for the community. Reigning as Miss Rankin County Plus America from 2019/2020 to reigning as your Miss Mississippi Plus America 2020/2022 was a blessing to me, and will always hold a special place in my heart. ๐๐
It goes to say that even though your reign is over, people will remember those who have impacted them, their families or their community.

On April 9th one of these beautiful queens will be crowned as Miss Mississippi Plus America 2022! Canโt wait to see who it will be!! ๐ฃ๐
Each have had some difficulties on their journey, but they never quit!! Iโm so proud of them!!
Yโall better come ready to show out!! ๐

Counting down yโall!! ๐๐๐
Today is centered around sisterhood. โบ๏ธ You never know who you will encounter on this journey. A sister, a friend, a prayer partner, hangout person, the list could go on so be open. Yes, pageants are a competition, but once again they are so much more than that!! Everyone that participates are at different stages of life, and may even have some different things to offer you..encouragement, helping hand, outfit, jewelry, prayer, etc. ๐
I love my Miss Plus America Pageant sisters!! ๐ฅฐ๐
Iโm not one thatโs ever shy when going into the spotlight, and being on a stage for the very first time for a pageant was no different. As you can see below I loved and enjoyed it! The moment you hit the stage, others can tell if you practiced, are confident, and enjoying your time to shine. ๐ฅฐ๐
Pageants arenโt 100% based on beauty. I believe the entire journey for anyone is the continuation building of their self confidence and character. You go in with expectations, and sometimes you find out itโs not at all what you were expecting! Itโs soo much better!
Today I encourage anyone to walk in confidence and own your time! No one else can walk it like you! ๐
Itโs pageant week yโall!! Whoop whoop!! ๐

The countdown is back on!! I will be passing on the legacy, the crown, the title to my successor this Saturday, April 9th at 2 pm!! Canโt wait to see your faces in the place! ๐
This journey has been bittersweet! My reign has been amazing, and thereโs nothing I would change. Forever grateful for the network Iโve created and each and every opportunity that Iโve had!
Canโt wait to see who the new Miss Mississippi Plus America will be and see the legacy continued of being yourself, serving as an advocate and empowering others! ๐๐ฅฐ
Countdown day 16 ๐
Every young girl should see themselves as a princess and believe they are one. This little girl believes that whole heartedly. Today is her 10th birthday, and she insisted she wears a crown to celebrate because sheโs a princess. ๐
Happy 10th birthday Laylah!! ๐๐๐
Being an advocate for your platform is great, but itโs also warming to see future young ladies want to wear a crown like you and get dolled up. ๐ You never know who youโre impacting. So remember someone is always watching your every move.
Countdown Day 17 ๐
In every pageant system before your reign ends, you must crown your successor. So, Iโm eager to see who I will be crowning as your new Miss Mississippi Plus America 2022 on April 9th!! Will you be joining us in person or virtual? ๐ There are tickets still available! Please purchase yours before they run out! I guarantee you donโt want to miss this! โบ๏ธ

Counting down: Day 18 ๐
Iโve had the opportunity to share some of my life, community engagement, and encouraging moments during my journey while be your Miss Mississippi Plus America 2020-2021. Of all the things Iโve accomplished, Iโm extremely proud to have met and and assisted more single parent families (my platform) than previously doing.
No one goes into life with intentions on being single parents. However, we see that this more so is becoming the case because relationships fail or both parties agree to not be together. If there isnโt a mutual agreement put in place, one parent may fall off (or simply stop caring for the child(ren) or the other one may despise the other one so no assistance is given) which results in a single parent household. Whatever the reason is, being a single parent is difficult in todayโs time because everything is primarily based off a two parent household. Single parents my encouragement to you is that there are resources for you and your children to make it a little easier on you. Donโt be afraid to reach out to your community. It takes a village to raise a child. Iโm here for you. A listening ear, a break, a mentor for your children, a load lightener, an errand runner, and whatever else that could make it easier on you. ๐
๐ฃ Tag, youโre it! Letโs talk:
If youโre a single parent/or was once a single parent did you reach out for assistance? If so, what resources did you find? Do you encourage other single parents to utilize that resource or inform them of it?
If not, was there a specific reason you didnโt do so?
Engagement part for non-single parents:
Are you aware of any single parents in your community? If so, are you doing anything to assist them or lighten their load?
Day 19: countdown
I had to take it back for you all to where this opportunity started. Your Miss Rankin County Plus America!
Canโt believe two years have gone by so swiftly. The amount of support and new friendships/relationships Iโve gain is truly wonderful!! This journey has grown and challenged me!
Each season prepares you for the next. ๐
