Tamia Ascencio Trujillo

I think what makes me a super mom is that I get up every day and am present in my kids lives even though I have a lot going on in my life

What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part about being a mother is that I get to grow and nurture these two babies to be the best humans they possibly can. It gives me so much joy and strength knowing that I have the power to do that. Being a young mom isn’t easy by any means, but they make life worth living every single second of it.

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

My kids are still young but I will never forget the time I woke up from bed, looked at the monitor to check if they were still asleep and found my son grabbing his little sister from the crib and then playing on the floor and laughing together. That memory is such a core memory I’ll never forget, it was the sweetest, most wholesome thing ever!

What would you do with $20,000?

Honestly, given the chance.. I would 100% buy a house to live in with my babies. We don’t live in the best apartment right now, and I’ve never felt good about raising them in this place, my dream is to eventually buy a house for them and have a stable secure place to live in. I want them to grow up in a house that they can call home and will look back on when they’re older and moved out. A home where they seek comfort in and always are welcome to come back to at any time.
