It’s has just been me and my girl since the beginning. I work two jobs and go to school just so she can have a better future along side me.
We would like to thank you for supporting Makynna 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 best part about being a mom is the pure fulfillment I get from knowing she’s happy. Even when the days seem bad for me, she still thinks the world of me and everything around her.
What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?There was one day in particular. I was crying about some personal things and she comes up to me. She say, “Mama, it’s gonna be okay. You just have to breathe and be happy.” That was the moment I knew I was doing something right as her mom. I knew she felt loved, and that’s all a mom could ask for.
What would you do with $20,000?Barely making it by as a single mom, getting out of debt would be my first priority. After that, it’s all for her. I can always make money to live off of, but I never want her to have to struggle the way I did growing up.
