I am not a
huge football fan ::insert gasps here:: as those who know me can tell you, it's not a big secret. My
Hubby; DIE.HARD.TEXANS.FAN. That's neither here nor there though. I stand behind my
city even if I don't know what a "3rd down" or a "fumble" are. Ha.
YES, come on...no denying
J.J. Watt....Cutie, Hottie, whatever you want to call him, yes. Very handsome.
I know all the girls and even though they might deny it most men, would
LOVE to meet J.J. Watt. Who wouldn't? Mr. Nice Guy, amazing football player,
caring, humble, strong, intelligent, tall, good looking, single; etc. etc.
But as a Momma, you know who I
really want to meet? His Momma. Ms. Yes, CONNIE Watt.
We have a lot in common, even our names! I would love to just hug her and
know more about her and how she managed to raise such an amazing young man.
Why? Simple. Because I have son.
Her son is obviously an exceptionally talented person. I too want to raise a strong, motivated and inspiring young man who will follow his dreams, reach all his goals and strive to be the very best in whatever it is he chooses to be!

Granted I
know that a lot of these types of people are just naturally gifted but I also
know that as parents, as Momma's we have a huge influence in our children and
their development.
I know
exactly what I would tell her and ask her! She is a Momma, a Professional, a friend,
a hilarious commercial side-kick and so much more. As a fairly new Momma I
could use some tips.
Here is what I would ask her...
Here is what I would ask her...
Did you
imagine your son being the most recognizable household name in the U.S.? When
did you know your son had something special that needed to be nurtured?
Was your
son always seen as a leader and if so how did you help him boost those
qualities and characteristics?
I want
my son to be a role model to his peers and his community, what did you instill
in your son that allowed him to grow into the role model that he is?
And, no
joke, how did you keep him single and focused? Because trust me that matters. Some
relationships are great and will help push one another along or build each
other up to where you need to be. But, a lot of young relationships can be a
distraction. And, focus makes a difference in reaching your goals.
What advice could you give Young Momma’s who
are maybe not making that connection that you have obviously created for you
and your son?
Being a
Momma is so much work. Every day we have new struggles, obstacles and
challenges to face. We do so much for everyone else. What
tips do you have that helped you manage your everyday schedule?
What would
I tell her? I would say…
