A Bond Like No Other

Mommy + Me: Criscilla and Eunisha Lawrence

When your mom is a woman who exemplifies strength, resilience, and encouragement, how could you not find yourself in admiration of the woman that she is? Criscilla has had to make difficult decisions to ensure her family was cared for, protected, and provided for. Criscilla became a mom and 16 years old, and despite the challenges and hardship that come with being a young mother on a small island, she persevered to make the best of it.


Eunisha considers herself truly blessed to have such an amazing mother like Criscilla. Her mother’s unwavering support and valuable life lessons have instilled in her a fierce determination to always aim for greatness. When Eunisha was just ten years old, she was sent to live with her sister in St. Thomas while her mother took care of matters in Antigua before joining the family. Although the separation was challenging, their enduring bond speaks volumes about the unbreakable connection between them. 

Witnessing Criscilla’s determination and dedication has shown Eunisha that with hard work, anything is possible. Criscilla has been a constant pillar of support for Eunisha, whether it’s in the kitchen or cheering her on during her journey to becoming Miss UVI. Eunisha is filled with gratitude for Criscilla’s unwavering presence and the profound impact she’s had on her life. Their bond is built on mutual understanding and support for each other’s personal aspirations. One of the most valuable lessons Eunisha has learned from Criscilla is never to let go of her dreams and always to follow her heart.
