Good inspiring video!!!
Very well done, moving, and inspiring video. Such a wonderful, caring, and dedicated mom. There are some deep messages here all could learn from.

What son or daughter doesn't want to hear their parents say, "I'm proud of you." Wanda's video is touching and shows the depth of rewards parents feel in seeing their kids reach their highest potential.
Kevin Durant is such an awesome player. It's almost scary to think that he is still getting better.
This story about his mom is one about love and committment and just how far those two go when you're trying to achieve your dreams. Well done.!
