A few years ago a young lady named Shelby Hill from Roy Utah reached out to me to see if she could use our Respectful Rabbit as her platform while she ran for Miss Utah. Needless to say, the answer was 'yes'! Shelby did run for Miss Roy Utah and won, then she ran for Miss Utah and did not earn that title, however, she went on to a bigger platform, she was a missionary doing wonderful things for others and sharing her faith with God's word as well. Shortly after that she married and now is a mommy to a beautiful little boy. We at Characters of Character have high regards and bundles of respect for this young lady. Who do you have respect for? How do you teach your child to be respectful? Respectful Rabbit does have a few tips, click here to read them.
