What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

Being a mom to a baby is an incredibly rewarding experience. The first time my baby smiled at me, I felt an overwhelming sense of love and purpose. The way they reach out for me, trusting me completely, fills my heart with joy. Every milestone, big or small, feels like a shared victory. The late-night feedings and endless cuddles make the exhaustion worth it, knowing I’m their safe place in this big world.

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

I’ll never forget the surprise of my child's birth. Ultrasounds and doctors confirmed I was having a girl, so I prepared for a daughter. I had four baby showers, all with pink decorations, dresses, and floral themes. The nursery was ready, and we had the perfect girl’s name picked out. Then, when I gave birth, the moment I heard “It’s a boy!” was pure shock. I couldn’t believe it. All the pink and floral seemed so out of place, but the love I felt for my son was undeniable. It was meant to be!

What would you do with $20,000?

If I won $20,000, I’d start by donating a quarter of it to moms in need, to help them provide for their families. I’d then put a portion into my son’s college fund, ensuring his future is a little brighter. The rest of the money would go toward creating lasting memories with my family—trips, special outings, and experiences that bring us closer together. It would be a balance of giving back, securing my son’s future, and cherishing time with the people I love most.
