For the first time in my life and in 7 years of my fair journey I am by the grace of God's help and the people he has provided ...i am making it through the entire fair with the fewest meltdowns I've had trying to break barriers I've never accomplished before. Open every day of the fair. No joke...i am physically, mentally drained giving it literally everything Ive had with 5 more days then break down still ahead. The people and the stories, the blessings, and the life changing moments that happened at this booth this year. The moments when non verbal categorized people talk and communicate and family remembers hear their kids voices for the first time, when young kids on sensory overload make it through and completely change and are able to function better, when people learn their talents can turn into their vendor business, when parents receive hope to keep going and when the Lord opens door of.new.opportunities to use my voice to make a difference.
For some people its easy to do daily stuff like this but for me...don't know how to explain it but it takes every part of my brain, body, fighting anxiety, sounds, screams, lights and everything I fight that no one understands to make it through even the seconds in a half hour. I am so tired and need three days to just sleep and revamp fully. I am proud to share Gods testimony with people, shine his love, and be real about the hardness yet advocate and educate and give God the glory for even being blessed to be here.
Ive also been rooting on my Mrs Alaska and Miss Alaska For America Pageant queens as they have been taking the national stage in Las Vegas. Excited about Teyanni Jackson tonight and Christian Clarissa Mulkey placed top 15 and Leah Ebadpour shined her light immensely on stage and loved her polar bear costume. One year ago I was in Vegas supporting and experiencing and learning so much at nationals. So much in my head to share, but lots of work to still do.
Your 2026 Miss Alaska for America Strong Woman of Achievement and Ambassador is a walking testimony of what God is doing and he done.
