Being a part of the US Continental Pageant system has been one of the best experiences of my life. It came to me at a time in my life when I was feeling a little down because of turning 40. Preparing for the pageant forced me to take a good look at myself and realize that I still had a lot to offer. It really helped my self esteem and my confidence. It was something that has brought my family even closer together. I have always been very involved with my two kids Kayla (11 years old) and Anthony (14 years old). Now all of a sudden my kids were supporting me. They helped me prepare for fitness, went shopping with me, critiqued my walking, and helped prepare me for my interview. My husband Cory has been awesome. He has backed me 110%, plus was my advisor on my wardrobe, my chauffeur, and my best friend. The pageant has opened up so many doors for me. I have made wonderful friends that I am sure will be my friends for life. It has opened up an opportunity for my daughter and I to learn how to clog and we are now a part of the Wizbang Cloggers, a professional clogging team that performs all over Florida. The pageant has given me a wonderful chance to do wonderful things with my charity the Children's Home Society that helps children that have been abused or abandoned. I am looking forward to so many more wonderful experiences since I have become Mrs. Florida. I would recommend this pageant system (and have) to girls and women of all ages. There is so much for everyone to get out of this system., from making new friends, to learning more about yourself, to gaining self confidence, and learning to speak well and be poised in public. I am looking so forward to the year to come and to many more years after.
Donna Aberman, Mrs. Florida USC 2004
