time and still pours her whole heart into supporting her
nine year old daughter, Hadley's passion for dance, and Brittany
is determined to keep that light burning no matter the sacrifice.

Most of what they have are hand me downs, and
Britney stretches every dollar to make sure how do we
feel supported and cared for? To make ends meet, Brittany
takes on extra jobs, dog sitting, house sitting, cleaning homes,
returning cans. She's constantly working, juggling side jobs with no
real breaks. Hadley helps too, with lemonade stands and even
(03:01):
offered to sell her own vanity. Together, they've sold furniture,
all while Brittany tries to create a meaningful Christmas on
almost nothing. Brittany is the kind of mother who quietly
moves mountains. Her devotion, resilience and selfless love deserved to
be recognized.
