Girl Talk!

Happy Friday!

Another great day as Miss Hattiesburg!  Today I was honored to be the keynote speaker at the “Girl Talk” Event sponsored by the Laurel Junior Auxiliary.  The 8^th grade girls from Laurel Middle School were treated to a fabulous day and I was so thrilled to be a part of it.  The Laurel JA outdid themselves on this one!  There were sessions on etiquette, health and wellness, self-defense, future choices, and beauty tips.  This was one of the most enthusiastic groups I have ever spoken to.  They clapped along to all the songs, answered all of my questions, and even laughed at my bad jokes (hehe).  I had a blast, but most importantly I think my message really hit home with some of these young ladies.  Even if only one girl in the audience took my words to heart, I feel like it was time extremely well spent!
