She's a single mother of three, 57 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 2: two preteens and one teenager, and she amazes me every 58 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 2: day with how hard she work to provide for her children. 59 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: Despite facing many years of financial strain and personal challenges 60 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,679 Speaker 2: that would discourage most people, Jamie gets up each day 61 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: determined to give her kids stability.
