“She takes the time to listen and talk to her kids as needed. She gives them hugs and lets them know they are loved and they are important. I saw her get down on the floor, in a dress, to help and talk to a child with disabilities get through a tantrum. She participates in online activities and exercises with them. It is important to her that her kids learn what they need to learn and wants them to be successful and happy.
