Bug put on her best dress and entered the Canal Days Mini Queen Contest. Before the contest, Bug told Mommy & Daddy that it even if she didn't win, she would have fun. What a great attitude! She showed no hesitation getting up in front of a large crowd and being interviewed. Bug had a vibrancy to her with a good tone of voice and confidence. This is how the interview went:
Bug: Hi, my name is *Bug*!
Announcer: How old are you?
Bug: Good (some chuckles from the crowd)
Announcer: How old are you?
Bug: I am four, I went swimming. (more chuckles)
Announcer: Sounds like you want to say something
Bug: I played duck, duck, goose
Announcer: Who did you play with??
Bug: Nobody (laughs from the crowd)
Announcer: Oh you played by yourself?
Bug: Yea
Announcer: Do you have any pets?
Bug: Dandy (our cat Andy she renamed Dandy)
Announcer: Is that a cat or dog?
Bug: Cat
Announcer: Is it an inside or outside cat
Bug: Outside
Announcer: Thank you !! That was **Bug** (whispers from the crowd.. "she's so adorable")
- Bug was patiently waiting to take the stage.
- Making her amazing speech
- Bug with Papaw & Grandma
- Recieving her trophy and flower
- Bug & Bee and Bee's little sister Rissa
The winners were chosen by random drawing of colored flowers. Bug did not win, but she didn't really even notice. Each contestant was given a trophy and a big bag full of goodies. All of the contestants get to ride in the Canal Days parade also. The contest is a great experience for Bug. Shows her confidence in herself and public speaking even at an early age. Bug's Grandma & Papaw came to watch and also Bug's best friend Bee. Everyone is so proud of her!
