We would like to thank you for supporting Katie Bielefeld 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?

I think the most rewarding part about being a mom for me is how much unconditional love that is reciprocated between my son and I, and simply how much joy he brings me everyday.

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

One memory of my son I will never forget is the day he came home from the hospital (Valentine’s Day). He was born with DiGeorge syndrome which I was unaware of and had no complications during my pregnancy. After he was born he was failure to thrive and ended up needing heart surgery. Lonzo received surgery during heart awareness month in February and come home February 14th. Felt like that was the day we could finally breathe and really start living and enjoying/ cherishing each & every moment.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would invest in a house for my son and I! We currently live with my parents while I am in school to be a registered nurse! 🩷
