I have 4, almost 5 children. Being a mom is the most beautiful, emotional, and challenging thing I’ve ever done. It is an underrated title.
We would like to thank you for supporting Courtney Shaffer in this year's Super Mom competition. Your participation allows us to aid Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in their commitment to save and improve the lives of as many children as possible.
Witnessing the milestones of each child and watching their journey of becoming their own unique self. Motherhood transforms me in so many ways; I can’t help but appreciate who I have become inside and out because of my children. I may have thought I was a content, happy person before being a mom, but true happiness lies in the selfless act of raising children and living for those hugs, kisses, and laughs shared with them. I’d give anything to pause time just to savor the small moments .
What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?Cuddling in bed with them and having them fall asleep in my arms. It is our safe space and they know they are always welcome (most of the time) to come cuddle up with Daddy and Mommy. There has been moments where they feel happy, excited, lonely, sad, or scared; and the fact that they run to me and their dad to share those moments means everything. I hope that never changes as they grow up.
What would you do with $20,000?Start a savings account for each child, help pay for their school tuition, and prepare to have one heck of a Christmas this coming holiday season!
