I am a super mom because despite all the challenges I face, I keep going: single parenting can be hard but I have never given up!

What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of becoming a mom is being able to not only create a new life but also being a good role model for my daughter, seeing her grow confidently and fiercely; this is also teaching me how to be a better human being myself, have more patience, and understanding. I also get the chance to experience life through her eyes while traveling or spending time together. The joy I have as a mother cannot be compared to anything else, I am so fortunate to have her in my life !

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

Oh, I don't think I can talk about just one memory, but I do remember taking two months off from work and going to Europe. We spent one month traveling through five different countries and we almost missed our train from Paris to Barcelona, we talk about it till this day and we agreed it felt like a miracle as even the cab driver had to run us up the platform while I couldn't hold me breath and my then seven year old dragging her little stroller behind her; we laugh so hard when we talk about it

What would you do with $20,000?

If I were to win the big prize, I would like to fully fund my emergency fund (I need to save $10,000), donate 10% to cover meals for our local school, and invest the rest for my downpayment for a house
