Single mother of 2 twin boys . Twin B almost died but i performed CPR on him to bring him back to life. I’m my only financial support.
We would like to thank you for supporting De'Janey Strawn 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.
The most rewarding part about being a Mom to me is knowing that I have the opportunity to make a change in my kids life and be a great role model to my boys . I also get to share my motherhood with other parents as I am an early childhood intervention specialist and I help other Moms out with therapy sessions for their kids. Moms thank me everyday for making an impact their children speech, gross motor skills and overall development. I feel rewarded from my own kids and the kids I help everyday
What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?The one memory I will never forget is somewhat sad but it is bringing my child back to life as he needed CPR from not breathing . This experience showed me that God placed my kids in my life for a designed purpose. Right after the incident happened both of my twin boys reached a milestone of laughing a few days later and all I could do was cry because God kept both of my boys in my life for continuous joy for many more years .
What would you do with $20,000?As I am a single mother of both of my boys , I am their only financial support. With this $20,000 , I would set them up a savings account for when they get older and I also would move us out of my 1 bedroom apartment that barely has space for us to a townhome or a bigger apartment that would be more suitable .I would also invest in what I do for work by buying more flash cards, more puzzles and anything that I can use to help the parents of the kids I help everyday with their development.
