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

I get to see my love shape a little human; watch her grow & develop & become who she is destined to be. I get to see her reach new milestones, both big and small. Along the way, I get to discover a strength in myself. I watch her change and evolve; I not only see the beautiful person she’s becoming, but also who I’m becoming. It’s knowing that even on the hardest days, I’m her home.

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

I’ll never forget the first time she said “Mommy”, such a small word, but it filled every corner of my heart. Then when she said “I love you” for the first time, it was like hearing the universe speak back. Now, watching her grow into her confidence, speaking fluent Spanish with pride, I see her becoming her own person & I couldn’t be more proud. These moments stay with me. They’re etched into who I am, just like she is.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20K, I’d invest in mine & my daughters future by building savings, paying off debt, supporting her education, putting her in extracurricular activities she enjoys, or planning meaningful vacations. Each of these options could make a meaningful difference in shaping our future, creating memories, opportunities, & a more secure foundation for the years to come.
