Mom of the Month: Angela Rozenveld - June 2012

momstown Milton : Mom of the month

Name:  Angela Rozenveld       

Age: 37 (38 in July)
Born In: Chatham Ontario

Children’s name and age:  Gabriel 7 months

Childhood Ambition:  I wanted to be on tv and be in the Olympics.  I was not very good at any particular sport but would watch figure skating and wanted to be one of those girls doing flips and twirls on the ice.

Fondest Memory:  My grandparents coming from the east coast every summer and Christmas to visit.  They would stay in my room (I had a double bed) and I loved their smell on my pillows after they left.   It was like they were still there.

Wildest Dream: Renting a scooter in all of these counties; Spain, Greece, Switzerland, Ireland, Scotland and France.

Proudest Moment:  Becoming a mom!  Second proudest, watching my husband become a father.

Biggest Challenge: Professionally, earning the respect of the old boys club.  It’s not easy being a woman in the corporate world; especially in Construction.

Perfect Day:  A day at the spa all by myself, followed by white wine and cheese.

First Job:  Scooping Ice Cream in Grand Bend Ontario

Indulgence:  Purses, bags & luggage, my husband calls me the bag lady.  I am even obsessed with all those reusable bags they sell at the grocery store.

Last Big Purchase: My stroller, I paid more for it then I did my first car!  It was a 1987 Honda Civic and I paid $750 for it!

Favorite Movie or Favourite Sport?  - Favorite movie is Rudy.  But football is not my favourite sport.  Baseball is my favourite.

Anything else you want to share?

I am humbled and honoured to be picked as mom of the month.  5 or 6 years ago I never even thought I wanted to be a mom, now look at me!  Momstown has made being a mom so much fun, and has introduced me to so many wonderful mammas and babies.  I am pretty sure I could have gone crazy on more than one occasion if it wasn’t for my Momstown network.  xoxo
