The Virginia International Workshop was held in Glen Allen, Virginia today.  I was happy to meet Tabbitha - Mrs Blue Ridge, Cassandra - Mrs. Petersburg and Jennifer - Mrs Winchester.  We are all looking forward to the pageant to get to meet the other contestants!
DeShawn, the State Director, held a very informative event and had former as well as current queens, pageant staff and pageant sponsors in attendance.  We were able to practice in mock interview and have a nice lunch together.  We even had the opportunity to purchase clothing and/or jewelry.  I added a little bling to my collection when I purchased a pair of earrings. (I just had to have them.)   Thank you to DeShawn and the entire Mrs Virginia International Team!!!!
Mrs. Springfield USOA 2021. Be the  change, be a volunteer has been a lifelong passion of mine .  Having been born an orphan back in the 60’s, I went through foster care as well as the adoption process here in the United States.  Though I felt as an outsider looking in most of my life since I was placed with a family who had biologically born children in the family, I nevertheless, feel blessed that I had a roof over my head and food to eat.  Having a family of my own is of high importance to me.  Being able to overcome the diagnosis of infertility due to cancer cells within my reproductive organs, my husband Bruce and I were ecstatic to welcome the birth of our daughter in 2006.  Feeling as if my life is bountiful I give back to others by serving as a volunteer for numerous organizations and helping orphans in need. We have personally provided and delivered care packages and supplies to orphans in Mexico and Africa.  I feel that providing personal attention in the form of a party for the orphans is integral to providing hope for children to see that others do care.  I am thrilled to be married to the man of my dreams,  a mother to my miracle child and the referee to our two black labs.
