The most rewarding part of being a mom is watching my daughters grow into confident, strong, and resilient individuals. Seeing their hard work pay off—whether it’s my oldest shining on the track or my youngest mastering a new gymnastics move—fills me with pride. Balancing my own education while supporting their dreams shows them the value of dedication. Our family trips and quality time together remind me that the love, guidance, and memories we create are what truly matter.

One memory I’ll never forget is when my oldest won her first track race. The look of pride on her face and the excitement in her eyes made all the early mornings and practice sessions worth it. My youngest was right there cheering her on, doing a little gymnastics flip in celebration. It was a beautiful reminder of how supportive they are of each other and how their hard work truly pays off. Moments like that make me so grateful to be their mom.

With $20,000, I would put it toward getting a home that my children can call theirs forever—a place where they’ll always feel safe and loved. I would also invest in their education to ensure they have the best opportunities to pursue their dreams and build a bright future.
