We would like to thank you for supporting Makayla Paige 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?

My bonus sons, my daughter and my fiancée have made me a better person. They are my whole world. It’s been hard balancing mom life while grieving (my dad passed suddenly 2 months after I had my daughter & then my mom got a tumor in her brain and we quit everything to take care of her for a year and she recently passed) but God put my bonus sons and my daughter in my life to help me through it!! They are truly the biggest blessing!!

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

When I first had my daughter and the boys got to come to the hospital and meet her. They were so excited for their new sister and they still get excited to see each other, it melts my heart every time.

What would you do with $20,000?

Put a down payment on a home for my family. I just started back working in December b/c my fiancée and I had to become full time caregivers for my mom. Right now we’re staying in the trailer my mom was renting but we can’t afford this rent since our landlord went up and I’d rather be paying a mortgage on something I can pass down to my children.
