We would like to thank you for supporting Lily Johnen 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.

What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

Seeing my daughter so full of joy and curiosity. I have a strong connection with my baby, its a wonderful warm feeling. Its an honor and a blessing to be her mom, its rewarding and inspiring to see her unafraid and willing to try anything new.

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

That it is okay to FEEL. Emotions are meant to be felt for a moment and then let go, its how you stay authentic. I struggle with this still but I'm learning that I am not perfect, but I give my all everyday to my baby, my husband and most importantly myself.

What would you do with $20,000?

This money would change our life. I would be able to pay off my debt as well as my husbands. We could be debt free besides our home loan and be able to stop living paycheck to paycheck. After that, all of the rest of the money would go to our daughter, 75% in saving and the rest for whatever she wants.
