Two years ago, my kids and I started over. Today, we’re back home, building a safe, peaceful future every day.
We would like to thank you for supporting Alexandra Poole in this year's competition. Your participation made a huge impact for Children’s Miracle Network® and their mission to provide life-saving care and improve the health of children across the country.
The most rewarding part of being a mom is knowing my kids feel safe, loved, and truly seen. After starting over, I’ve worked hard to make sure they still get to be kids. Seeing their joy reminds me that every sacrifice has been worth it.
What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?Motherhood has taught me that strength isn’t always loud. It’s showing up every single day, even when you want to give up. It’s making hard choices, starting over when needed, and putting your kids first no matter what. I’ve learned that being a good mom isn’t about perfection, it’s about consistency, love, and never giving up.
What would you do with $20,000?$20,000 wouldn’t just change our situation, it would re-write our future. It would bring stability, a peaceful home, and the ability to better support my daughter Amaya, who is non-speaking and autistic, while continuing to build a strong, happy future for my son Vallen. More than anything, it would give them the security and opportunities they deserve.
