MISS TEXAS

Lone Star Angels

A Dream is a Wish that every little girl’s heart makes.

Some dreams never become a reality for those girls that have a disability.

What girl doesn’t dream of someday wearing a beautiful

gown on a stage?

What girl doesn’t dream of having her hair and makeup done to present her beauty to an audience of adoring

fans?

What girl doesn’t dream of becoming Miss America???

The fact is…they all do. The only difference is ability vs disability.

I have been told many times, “My goodness, you have your hands full!”

I will take full over empty any day. I believe that we are more than an organization; we are a

family.

My name is Darla Bergeron, the Executive Director for Miss Katy and

Miss Fort Bend County.

I am nothing I am no one

just the Mom of an Angel~

And this is my daughter, Brooklyn BergeronMiss Katy’s Lone Star Princess

She is 12 years old and has a platform to share with the world, one that she lives with every single day. She has

Cerebral Palsy and society has told her that she will NEVER walk the Miss Texas Stage. I think otherwise.

My vision is to create a moment for all of the Angels out there that share the same

dream as every other girl. To let them have the opportunity to be beautiful. To place a titleholder in the

position of being a role model and mentor to those girls that live with the word NO

engraved in their heart. To set the precedence to the world that THEY are the stories that the Children’s Miracle Network

was created by. See…they are the miracles that we support

in our efforts. They too, dream of one day attending

college. They too, want to feel accepted.

They too, deserve the chance to be beautiful.

And I can think of no better stage to turn dreams into a reality…Miss Texas.
