Breaking Boundaries - Miss Minnesota

This story was all over my news feed the past few days, so in case it doesn’t reach our friends and family, I wanted to share it:

Mikayla is the first person believed to be in any Miss America State pageant. She didn’t make it to the top 15, which isn’t even the point - she competed like any other typical contestant and sure did shine! 

I’d actually learned about Mikayla earlier this year when she received a scholarship through Ruby’s Rainbows - remember, the great organization that raises money to award to students with Ds who want further education?

Keep rocking Mikayla - break down those boundaries!
