About My Blog

Welcome! This blog is about my year of service as Mrs. Tulsa and my preparation for the Mrs. Oklahoma America pageant. My blog includes posts about

• developments in my preparation
  
• tips for pageant contestants
• journal entries about my experiences at my appearances and service events, and
  
• articles for parents, teachers, and kids about relationships, marriage, and handling divorce.

All articles about pageantry and articles related to marriage and family are listed and linked on the side bar.

Please feel free to send me an email if you have any questions about marriage and family that you would like me to answer here. I admit that I am biased toward marriage and have a tendency to think about what is best for the kids before I think about what is comfortable or easy for mom and dad. You see, I don't know what it's like to be a divorcing parent -- but I will never forget what it was like to be a 13-year-old child of divorce. I have been studying marriage and family and how to help children of divorce for the last seven years. Feel free to email me at SashaMTownsend@gmail.com. I would love to hear from you!
