12 Brandi H VA This is my aunt who has one 3-year-old, one due in October and is married to a man in the Navy. She’s a stay-at-home mom now because it’s difficult to coordinate schedules with her husband being in the military, especially when he’s deployed. She’s made to be a mom. She’s tried (long and hard) for both sons. Just when she thought a second might not be in her future (and after many injections, scheduling, doctor’s appointments and fertility drugs), she found out she was pregnant! It’s never been easy for her, but if anyone was made to deal with everything she has, it’s her. She’s the best mom I know and deserves a little pick-me-up for everything she does.

29 Crystal M AZ Crystal has 5 children and a husband. She works very hard as a college student working towards her masters degree,  as well as runs her household instilling values and humbleness in her children. She has always put herself last since she had her first child,  and I’ve witnessed her show humility when we sent her just fifty dollars to help buy groceries. She repaid us as soon as she could,  and was ever thankful for our help. I wish I lived closer to her so I could treat her to a nice girls day out. However,  even if I did live near her,  she would still be unable to go due to college homework and five young children to care for. I believe receding this gift will bring some ever needed happiness to her entire family.

55 Sabrina L TX I have a toddler and expecting my second child in Jan of  2016. Just move to the state of Texas. We moved for a better job opportunity. My husband is the only one that is working at the moment. So anything baby related would be of help. The move has been very expensive. Trying to start over in a new place has been very hard  Financially. We don’t have any family here for any extra help.  I have not started working due to my pregnancy and haven’t found a good daycare I can afford. So right now its just me and my little guy home. Trying to find work that would work between my husband schedule, so this way one of us will be home with our son. This is why I  nominate myself. Thank you. I hope I am picked 🙂 Maternity Items, Newborn/Infant necessities and gifts, Baby and Toddler items, General Women/Mom gift, Educational/Learning items for childrne, Household items and gifts, Toys & Games for children, Something for a man

60 Jennifer D GA It has been a really tough year.  My daughter is going to have back surgery, that has us all nervous and scared.  Things have been stressful going back and forth to the doctors, being fitted for orthopedic braces, things around our home have fallen behind.  Sometimes I wish I could just take her to the movies, or shopping for something fun.  We are not financially able to do that as her needs medically have strapped us financially.Her brother has Asperger’s and requires a large amount of time and energy as any change upsets him  All in all things have been more stressful than any family with two young kids should be. Sadly they have been to three family members funerals this year and their grandfather 61 had a stroke and is now being taken care of by us.  Our lives have turned a bit upside down, with no relief in site.  That being said I do everything I can to have them smiling and laughing everyday.  We have an old Monopoly set that is missing most of the land cards, so we have made our own so we can play. They are interested in games, movies and books – I pray that after the surgery we can hopefully find some order and move in a positive direction for our whole family.
