Grace

What makes Grace Xtraordinary to you?

Grace signed up on her own about 10 before midnight of the cutt-off date for a local pageant (Miss Unstoppable) for girls age 5 and up with intellectual and developmental disabilities. She chose to do a talent which was optional for this event. When I asked if we needed to start working on her talent which was a dance, she said ‘I already did it’. When all was said and done, she won the pageant! Trophy was 4 feet tall! She also won 2 of the 4 smaller trophies, one for ‘Talent’ and the other for ‘People’s Choice’. She is Miss Unstoppable 2023! She is spending this year representing the local disability organization, Ability Point, as well as being an advocate for people with disabilities in her community. She has met the mayor and local news celebrities, been in 2 parades (one being the Miss Kansas parade), dropped the hockey puck at the hockey games, flipped on Christmas lights, in addition to various local appearances and fund raisers, to speak on behalf of people with disabilities. She rocks and she is beautiful inside and out!
