It has been a while since I have posted on my site. Life has just been life’n. Not in a bad way, just in a real way. I have been trying to figure out “my what next?” It’s been 3 months since I passed on the crown of Mrs. Delaware America, and I have basically been relaxing and enjoying moments I sometimes take for granted. I don’t think I have updated you all on my reign, and my thoughts after passing the crown on so I guess that would be a good place to start.

So, May 7, 2023, was officially my last day as Mrs. Delaware America 2022. I had an amazing time and was so proud of my accomplishments. Never had I ever imagined that I would experience all that I experienced. As a little girl, I had dreams, but sometimes I would think they would never become a reality. For some reason, I would think that certain things were made for certain people and the rest of us were just made to dream. Thank God I have matured from that mentality.

Anywho, I was asked how did it feel after passing it on? I thought I would feel sad, but I honestly felt amazing…as if my season was over. I think I was successful at accomplishing all I wanted to achieve and didn’t feel like my reign was in vain. One thing I most do is acknowledge God in my life because He showed me that the many things I had gone through in my life were to prepare me for those moments I experienced during my reign. I understood that He doesn’t give you anything prematurely. I am at a space in my life where I understood that the crown didn’t “make me.” It was just a manifestation of what God has created in me. Had I been handed a title in my previous years of competing, I am not sure I would have handled it with the right care. So I am so thankful for the opportunity to have served as Mrs. Delaware America, and I am grateful for the growth and knowledge, I obtained during the time. Although, I still consider myself an awkward, introvert, I was able to get out of my comfort zone and show people, the “me” they don’t often see. Pageantry is a beautiful thing that sometimes gets a bad rep. It taught me so much about who I am, and quite frankly, I like who I am and who I aspire to be. So yeah, it is more than just a crown, it’s growth, it’s confidence, and it’s sharing with others what God has instilled in you!!

So, what next? Hummm… so much, so you will have to stay tuned to find that out. Now that that season is over, my goals are to re-invent, recuperate, and keep growing! I plan to be more consistent, reach more people, and continue to inspire women to mom it, wife it, queen it!!
