Mom of the Month: Nikki Larson {September 2017}

We are loving our Mom of the Month series!  Do you know a special mom in our community who deserves some special recognition? Fill out the form to nominate a mom you know here. Thank you to Whole Foods Market Oklahoma City for partnering with us to provide a special gift for our Mom of the Month!


We are excited to introduce you to our September Mom of the Month, Nikki Larson!

Nikki was nominated by Heather Grose, and this is what she had to say about her. 

I look up to Nikki. She trained me when I was a brand new nurse at St. Anthony’s downtown. She has a blended family and a husband that was diagnosed with cancer not too long ago. All the while she was cooking, cleaning, and taking care of her older children as well as her newest baby. They have been through surgery after surgery, and yet she still wakes up daily with a smile on her face. She is a wonderful role model. Takes care of everyone, no matter what she is going through. She is an extraordinary woman. She decided to quit her job as an ER nurse to stay home with her baby and help her husband to heal. She is definitely supermom and one of my best friends.

Let’s get to know Nikki!

How many children do you have, and what are their names and ages?

Charlie, 14 months
Gavin, 8
Bellamie, 9
Savanna, 13

What is your favorite thing about being a mom?

Watching each of my children develop a unique sense of self, style and independence. Every year they are changing and growing into amazing humans.

What is the most challenging thing about being a mom?

Blending two families is so challenging. Making sure everyone gets enough of each parents time and attention can be a logistical nightmare. We work on the quality of time, not the quantity.

What could you not survive without as a mom?

A large bag and my Tula! I need to be able to carry supplies for a small army & any emergency that may pop up!

What is your proudest mom moment?

When my children stick up for themselves and their siblings. Raising them to overcome any obstacle and to be proud of themselves is our greatest gift!

Nikki, we recognize you as being an amazing mom!  We hope you enjoyed your goodies from Whole Foods Market Oklahoma City! Congrats on being our September Mom of the Month!

I fell in love with my husband, Dustin, when I was a wide eyed 15 year old. I have been a mostly loving wife since June 5, 2010, and a mom since February 16, 2012. I live right by Tinker AFB, and I have three little ones- Lyla, 6, Karrick, 2, and our bonus baby Juliet, almost 1 year old! Along with serving as Community Engagement Manager for OKCMB, I work part time from the closet under our stairs teaching English to Chinese students early in the morning! The most relaxing part of my day is when I drink my whole cup of coffee -HOT- while it’s still dark, and the rest of my house is still and quiet. During the day, the kids and I are out and about, exploring the city and avoiding the laundry. I do my very best to run a happy and healthy household for my husband and the little people God has entrusted to me.
