I became a mom at 17. I’m 20 now and living paycheck to paycheck and just had an botched emergency c section with my second and almost died
We would like to thank you for supporting Anastasia Gilbertson 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 when my babies say they want mommy. When they feel safe with me and know that I unconditionally love them on the good and bad days.
What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?Motherhood has taught me that everything is temporary. That feeling of being overwhelmed is temporary, the exhaustion is temporary, their clinginess is temporary and some day you will miss every moment of it. So soak up every second and live in the moment.
What would you do with $20,000?20k would help with my medical expenses and recovery due to a botched c section as well as help me and my boys get a house finally and move out of my parents. I never got to go to college so I would also love to further my education! Id love to take the kids out of the country so they could have experiences I never had growing up. Everything I do is for them so 20k would take some stress off my shoulders and allow me to just enjoy time with them without worrying about money.
