I became a mom at 23, faced homelessness, but never gave up. Now, I’m a homeowner & federal contractor, proving resilience wins. #Supermom
We would like to thank you for supporting Lashonna Jones 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 of being a mom is the growth—not just my son’s, but mine too. Watching him learn, explore, and develop his personality is amazing, but motherhood has also pushed me to grow in ways I never imagined. It’s taught me patience, resilience, and unconditional love. Every challenge makes us stronger, and every milestone, big or small, reminds me how far we’ve come together.
What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?One memory I’ll never forget is single-handedly potty training my son. I got creative—used a sports drink bottle with yellow food dye to show him how to pee standing up, and dropped Cheerios in the toilet to help with aiming. It was a wild, funny, and proud moment that showed me just how resourceful motherhood can make you.
What would you do with $20,000?With $20,000, I’d invest in land to begin building a family compound—a legacy space where generations can grow, thrive, and feel rooted. It’s not just an investment in property, but in stability, unity, and a future full of opportunity for my son and our family.
