At which time, she was stopped by Simon to sing another song. Cristina is the second singing act to make it to the finals after being stopped by Simon in her audition. However, she is the highest placing singing act to be stopped by Simon.

-learning to be humble and express gratitude through our children
-giving ourselves grace as (single) mothers
-the song that got her the golden buzzer being the first time she performed it live
