Just being a mom. I believe all moms who love and cherish their children are “super” moms.

What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding is both the most rewarding and the most heartbreaking at the same time. It’s having the opportunity and the honor of watching them grow. That’s because watching them hit every milestone and grow is such a blessing but with every milestone met, is one milestone closer to them being all grown up and not needing us anymore. I absolutely love every version of my babies unconditionally but as their momma I will always wish I could keep them this little 🥹

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

How can I pick just one? I will remember every moment with them. I have ton of favorite memories of them individually but If I had to pick one memory of both of them that sticks out. It would be taking them outside to our hill with a piece of cardboard and letting them “cardboard sled” together their little giggles and cheering “wee” is priceless as they scoot down the hill.

What would you do with $20,000?

The first thing I would do is take them somewhere fun! We haven’t really gotten to go on vacation since our youngest who’s 2 was born so that would be the first thing we’d do. I’ve personally never been to a beach so we would probably choose the beach. I’d get to experience seeing the beach for the first time with my girls who have also never seen the beach. ❤️
