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

Being a teen mom can be super rewarding . I’ve formed a strong bond with my child, which is really special. Growing up together means we share experiences and learn from each other. Overcoming challenges has made me more resilient, and I’ve found a supportive community of other teen moms who totally get it. Plus, the life lessons I’ve learned about responsibility and love are invaluable. Watching my child reach milestones brings so much pride, knowing I’m a big part of their journey!

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

I’ll never forget my child’s birth. It was such an incredible experience filled with a mix of emotions excitement, fear, and overwhelming love. The moment I held my baby for the first time, everything changed. I felt a rush of joy and a sense of responsibility that I had never experienced before. It was a moment that defined my life and made me realize how strong I could be. Every detail, from the sounds to the feelings, is etched in my memory, and I cherish that day more than anything.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, I would start my daughter a college fund. It’s so important to me that she has the opportunity to pursue her dreams and education without financial stress. I want her to know that she can go after whatever she’s passionate about, whether it’s art, science, or anything in between. Saving for her future would give her a solid foundation to build on, and I’d love to see her thrive in college and beyond. It’s an investment in her future that I believe will pay off in so many ways!
