In case you haven't heard, I am a finalist in the Unstoppable Mom Contest! I really cannot believe it. It has been a whirlwind since the announcement and looks like it won't stop until it's all over.
I will appear by myself on the Monday show. So watch for me Monday- it airs in Houston at 9am on Channel 13. I'm going to try not to fall down or throw up or pee my pants or say anything completely dumb. I really dislike being on camera and in front of people, so prayers please!
On Friday most of the kids and I will be on the show when they announce the winner. I am flying back and forth between Monday and Friday to get the kids. It's a crazy plan, but that's what was agreed upon between the show people and Dave and I. Dave's staying home with Leah as we (and her doctor) are not comfortable with putting her through all of this.
I do not know voting rules yet, but I do know that Thursday is the only voting day. Expect another email Wednesday or Thursday :) And spread the word to vote!
How exciting!! Ill be watching!
ReplyDeleteI am in tears watching your story. I had twins and thought it was so hard. I can't imagine 6. You are such an inspiration and have my vote. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI just happened to be switching the channel on my tv and came about the Kelly and Michael show just as it was showing a picture of your precious children. My one 3yr old twin screamed "Twins!" so of course I had to sit and watch! As a mom to eight children ages 16, 14, 11, 10, 8, 7, 3 (twins) and three with special needs, I have to say you are amazing! Best of luck in the Unstoppable Mom contest! You totally deserve it:)
