I hope that this one goes down in history.
Maybe it was the spirit of the season.
Maybe the planets aligned.
Maybe it was just time.
Theresa LaJoe has been entering pageants as long as I have been around and she has always seemed so joyful and sincere but the title has never gone to her until last night.
I was not at the pageant but as I watched it unfold on facebook and saw the videos and saw that she won, I wish that I had the vocabulary to write the emotions that I felt to watch someone old enough to be their grandmother, live out her dream and WIN.
I will never have a crown, so thank you, Theresa LaJoe.
Thank you for not giving up on you dream.
Thank you for winning one for those of us that can't.
Welcome to your sisterhood.
