Super Mom

I am not a mother and the closest experience I had to being one was helping my mom take care of my young brothers.  I must admit it is crazy hard so I don’t blame moms who hire help. However, having been raised by a very hands-on mom is still the best option for me.

In this day and age when help on raising kids is very much accessible, it is hard to achieve the crown of being a SUPER MOM. There are many who label themselves as one but only a few actually deserve it. 

Let me share with you my TOP 3 SUPER MOMS:

Sheryl Salazar Regalado
Sheryl and I have been friends since we were 8 and when she exchanged her Hello Kitty stationery with my Kerokerokeroppi set, we swore we'd be best friends forever! LOL! A dentist by profession, she works at Paradigm Dental Models as an Administrative Sales Manager. Juggling between a career and being a mom to her 4-year old son Ramiel is a tough job, specially in the U.S. where household help is not readily available. But knowing Sheryl, it's nothing a super mom like her can't handle!

Anna Pazcoguin 
Having undergone Chemotherapy at 18, the doctors said there was a big possibility that Anna will never have children. Surprisingly, she had 4! She's mom to Ralph (14), Louis (11), Robin (9) & Stewart (6). Miracles do happen and it was a miracle well deserved! After raising her 4 boys with no household help, she decided that it’s time to build a career of her own. Last April, she graduated from a 4-year Nursing course and while taking a break from school, she is now playing Architect / Interior Designer to build her 4-storey dream home.
