rights I’m certain she knows what she’s talking about. She showed me what it means to take care of your house and still be able to be a mentor to girls less fortunate.

During my time of reflection and reminiscing on the examples of ultra-successful mother's in my life this one really took me by surprised, but the more I thought of it the more it made sense to me. Ever since I was like eight years old I've wanted two boys and two girls. I felt if God gave me all boys I would just lose it. But Momma Braxton showed me that even if I’m blessed to have all boys (as she was) I can still be a loving top notch mommy (as she is). And if nothing else I will be a stronger woman having to raise all boys just like her.

Who would have ever thought I would learn such a valuable lesson from such an unlikely source. Never did I ever imagine that 20+ years of thinking would be changed for the better in the few short years I've known her.

I feel like I hit the SuperMOM jackpot in most regards. So it was only right that this issue be jammed packed with tips and advice to help those current and future mommies be your best self.

This one's for you Fellow Over-Achiever. Enjoy!
