We would like to thank you for supporting Emily McLean 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?

For me, the most rewarding thing about being a mom is the unconditional my children give me. Even on the more difficult days, I still hear “I love you momma”, topped off with a tight hug and a wet kiss on the cheek. They make the hard days worth it. I have gotten to watch them flourish into funny, caring, respectful, and kind little humans. They make me feel like I have done something right.

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

One memory of my kids that I will never forget is the day we brought my son home from the hospital. My daughter was so excited to meet her baby brother and she wanted to hold him right away. I remember her rubbing his cheek and kissing his head, saying “hi Daniel, I’m your big sister”. It was one of the most heartwarming things I have ever experienced.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, I would pay down my debts, and put some in savings. I would also take my children on a much deserved fun and relaxing little vacation.
