A Modern Mom is a woman who takes care of herself on the inside and the outside."― Regina King "Like a lot of you, I grew up in a family on the ragged edges of the middle class. My daddy sold carpeting and ended up as a maintenance man. After he had a heart attack, my mom worked the phones at Sears so we could hang on to our house."― Elizabeth Warren
