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

The most rewarding part of being a mom, especially while balancing a full-time job, often comes from the deep connections and moments of joy shared with your children. It’s the selflessness that leads to seeing their smiles, hearing their laughter, and witnessing their growth. The patience you cultivate helps you navigate challenges and celebrate milestones, while the love you give and receive creates a strong bond that enriches both your life and theirs.

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

One memory I’ll never forget is the moment I first saw my baby. Giving birth was such an intense and beautiful experience. I remember feeling a mix of exhaustion, excitement, and pure love all at once. When I heard that first cry and saw my little one’s face for the first time, it felt like time stopped. There was this overwhelming sense of awe that this tiny human had been inside me, and now, they were in my arms.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I won $20,000, the first thing I would do is put it aside for my daughter’s future. I’d set up a savings account or investment fund for her, something that could grow over time and help cover her education or any big dreams she has down the road. I want to give her the best opportunities in life, and having that financial cushion would give her a solid start, whether it's for college, starting a business, or even buying her first car.
