Jamyce Lives the Dream on 'The View'

June 4, 2010 — -- For years Jamyce Lee would sit in her home and watch ABC's "The View," dreaming of joining the ladies' topical banter.

But after she was named one of "Good Morning America's" Living the Dream contest winners, Jamyce saw her dream come true.

For one day, Jamyce took to the stage with Whoopie Goldberg, Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Sherri Shepherd.

A normal day of work for Jamyce starts early at 5 a.m., when she heads out. Work lasts until 3 p.m., when her kids get home.

"And nine times out of 10, I'm cooking, trying to do something like that before I have to go to practice or a baseball game or a soccer game or a football game, or whatever season it is," she told "Good Morning America."

When she goes back to school to finish her degree in business administration like she plans, her days only will get busier.

Even though it's a life she loves, she told "Good Morning America" that one of her only moments of peace is when she sits down to watch "The View."

"I really do think that 'The View' is great because it gives so much," she said. "It talks about so much -- it's views of different opinions, of different cultures, of different backgrounds."

So when "Good Morning America" told Jamyce her dream to be on the show was going to come true, she was more than a little excited.

Jamyce, originally from Kankakee, Ill., packed her bags and brought her three kids along with her to the big city, New York, to "The View" set.
