March’s Winning Saintly Mom Story!
by Win Q.
I am a wife, mother, & nana. I’m a sahm & love my responsibility. We adopted a boy at birth. Unbeknownst to us at the time, our new son has Asperger’s Syndrome. He is 17 now & has a low IQ & the maturity of a 7 year old. A tricky situation. He is 6′ 2″ & the hormones are raging. He doesn’t grasp how to handle them. He is the love of our life & we have become advocates for children with Asperger’s Syndrome. We are truely blessed. It is our hope to show others not to be wary of ASD people.
February’s Winning Saintly Mom Story!
by Angel H.
I’m a busy mom of three little girls. Needless to say, they keep me on my toes. It was time for my yearly exam with my doctor and afterward he began his litany of questions. ”And do you exercise?” I paused for a long moment and then felt empowered. ”Why, yes I do! I go up and down the stairs. I lift 30 lb. and 15 lb weights respectively. I do arm stretches in the kitchen and laundry room. And my spiritual life isn’t lacking. I pray harder than I ever have before!” PROUD OF MYSELF.
January’s Winning Saintly Mom Story!

Saintly Mom? I could never give myself that name. However, I do go by Unconditional Mom on the World Wide Web. My life revolves around my daughter. You see… I’m a single mom who has 3 chronic diseases: diabetes, kidney and thyroid. My medical conditions cause complications, but that doesn’t stop me from giving my daughter – my all. I’m the PTO Chairperson at her school; Karate Event Coordinator at her karate dojo (so she can take free lessons); I’m involved at her Dance studio and much more!
December’s Winning Saintly Mom Story!
by Vickie C.
As a mom of 6, and grandmother of 5, my husband and I couldn’t wait to have “our” time when the house would be empty as the last one left the nest. He and I both had been active in our kids’ school and outside activities, and once they left our home, we found ourselves needing something more. So we got involved in the foster parent program, and took hard to place kids since we had some experience with kids (having had 6 of our own). We took tween girls: it was hard at times, but worth it. We ended up adopting our last foster daughter at age 16, and she graduates this May!
