We would like to thank you for supporting Darian Arena 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.

What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

Watching my child turn into her own person. Knowing I’m her safe space.

What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?

When I get home she still runs up to me and hugs me and tells me that she missed me. Still does it to this day and she is 11 and it never gets old.

What would you do with $20,000?

Share some with my mother and put the rest towards a new home for my family.
