Mommy Power is holding a sick child all night long hoping she feels better soon then going to work for eight hours while worrying about her at home all day. Mommy Power is waking up in the middle of the night to rescue a stuffed animal or put the covers back on. Mommy Power is knowing what your child needs when your child needs it and having the power to provide it. Mommy Power is teaching your child: the abc’s, please and thank you, and that every day you will be there with a hug and kiss to make it all better. Mommy Power is everyday waking up and loving your kids for who they are, what they are becoming and doing what you can to guide them to be the best they can be. Mommy Power is being they best you can be despite being sick, tired, guilty or doubtful because you are MOM, MOMMY, MAMA. Mommy Power is in every mom.
