'At the end of the day, Alana's still 14 and she needs her mom.'
"My mom has four kids. Three of us are grown and can take care of ourselves and can cook for ourselves and we all pay our own bills. But at the end of the day, Alana's still 14 and she needs her mom," Pumpkin explained of Alana, who currently lives with her, her husband, Joshua Efrid, and their 2-year-old daughter, Ella.
"It's been really good. It's obviously been a crazy experience because we went basically from raising a 2-year-old overnight to now raising a 2-year-old and a 14-year-old. So it's two different age groups right there," she said. "It's stressful. It's really stressful. It puts a lot on a person because of the age difference."
"In the beginning it was hard on all of us, especially [Alana] because that was her best friend," Pumpkin explained."They were so close and they'd done the pageants and stuff together, that was their thing. Everybody knew them for that and they knew how close they were. So that was very hard for her."
