132. Long Live the Queen, The interesting facts of a great Matriarch, Part 1 #womentowatch
Growing up as a small town Indiana girl, I never really believed in the Prince Charming kind of life. We grew up learning to dominate like the boys, playing against some of the greats in our neighborhood as well as learning to be loud enough to stand up for ourselves and use our sassy voices to get everything that we imagined. Those Roseberry girls, we don't follow a path, we blaze our own trail.
Why does this all relate to royalty, well, for the last SEVENTY years a woman as shaped multiple views of the Commonwealth, the realms and the like. While building a family, Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor did as many great things that she was never summoned to do as Queen. She definitely went above and beyond with such a great grace and humble opportunity to strive in multiple facets of her reign.
I didn't want to just put out an episode this week about the facts that you can get right off the bat through Wikipedia (you know I love it there) but I felt like something different needed to happen this time. Big Big thanks to Corine Heller of @ENews for her great article '70 Royally Fascinating Facts About Queen Elizabeth II, Britain's Longest Reigning Monarch' - I went through the first half for Part one of this #womantowatch and next Wednesday, I'll dive into the latter half of the article with some added fun of some of my favorite friends to follow for all the updates on QE2.
