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

Seeing my boys grow happily and healthily. My youngest is 7 weeks old, and watching my oldest grow into his role as a big brother is so beautiful. He is already so protective over his younger brother and always so loving. Knowing I have such a sweet and happy boy makes my heart soar. I know my baby will follow in his footsteps. I just love doing life with my kids. With them I feel complete.

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

It seems simple but my older son just got his first bicycle yesterday. He just turned 4. It was a nice day outside so my boyfriend, myself, and the boys went on a walk around our neighborhood yesterday. Spending quality time like this for the first time on such a beautiful day is something I’ll never forget. My family feels complete now.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would be able to pay off a huge chunk of student loan, medical, and credit card debt and we would either use the rest as part of a down payment for our first house or use to buy our rings and finally get married. $20,000 would mean everything to us. We are currently living with my future in-laws and have been stuck here for 4 years.
