The Story

Sam, loving mother of two, is a hot mess. She can't seem to handle the chaos of her daughter's teenage rebellion and her son's over-involved schedule. When she disappoints those who matter most to her, her mother comes to the rescue. Slyly sliding a little clear bag across the table, she introduces Sam to a drug that might solve everything. It's powers convince Sam to volunteer herself to host the neighborhood block party. Thanks to her newly found addiction, Sam has no problem balancing her kids and her party planning.

About This Team

The Mother of the Year team is comprised of talented and dedicated college students, both at the undergraduate and graduate level. This is the most involved period of our lives and we understand the pain of balancing life and its chaos. However, we were lucky enough to learn balance from our mothers. For our senior thesis at Chapman University, we're devoting our time to Mother of the Year to show everyone that it is okay that you don't have it together all the time. You're trying your best!
