Phaedra on Being "Super Mommy"

Phaedra Parks was touched by Ayden's adorable comments.

By Phaedra Parks

Bravotv.com: Were you surprised when Apollo showed up at Ayden’s dentist appointment?
Phaedra Parks: No, I was not surprised Apollo came to Ayden’s dentist appointment. I schedule all of the children’s doctor visits, and I always make sure Apollo has all the information. We love our sons, and I always want to give Apollo the tools to be an effective father.

Bravotv.com: How did Ayden do with the dentist?
PP: Ayden was a champ at the dentist. He has always been a great brusher and flosser. My god sister Dr. Rometta Powell is a dentist, so he has visited the dentist office numerous times, but he wanted to visit a pediatric dentist since he sees Rometta as a part of our family. I have known Dr. Jaha Howard for years and knew that he would be a perfect fit for our sons.  

Bravotv.com: Does Ayden still think you’re Wonder Woman?
PP: As a mother I have never been as touched to hear my son refer to me as a Super Mommy. I hope that he will always feel and know that I would jump leaps and bounds for him and his brother. As a busy working mom, it is a constant struggle for me to balance my work obligations and my boys' needs. So him feeling that way really validates my efforts in keeping that balance. But I have to admit that if there is a Wonder Woman in this world, it is my mother. She has been such a source of strength for me and is always there for the boys and me. So let’s say instead that I am the daughter of Wonder Woman, which makes me Super Mom!Bravotv.com: What went through your head during the scene where Apollo said he lied about seeing Kenya in LA?
PP: I was unmoved. Right now, I am completely focused on my children and keeping them, and myself for that matter, in a stable, healthy, and happy place. I am not paying attention to any of the chaos that is going on, because it’s not productive.
