Connect What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom? It’s hearing others say how kind, thoughtful, and well-mannered my boys are. It’s watching them grow—not just in height, but in heart. And when they start asking deep questions about God and lean into their faith on their own? That’s when I know I’m doing something right. It’s those quiet, sacred moments that remind me this calling is holy and worth every valley we walk through.

What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?

Every moment with them is precious, but the ones that stay with me forever? It’s when they’re all laughing uncontrollably together, singing their hearts out during karaoke, or huddled around, daring each other to try a new food. Those moments—where joy is loud, love is unfiltered, and we’re fully present—are the ones that make time stand still.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, I’d first give 10% to my church—God first, always. Then I’d set aside savings to start investing for each of my sons’ futures. We’d finally get that family theme park pass they’ve been dreaming of—making memories that last. And the rest? I’d invest into my business to keep building a legacy that honors where we’ve come from and where we’re going—faith-forward, always.
