What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

After being on drugs for 15 years and gaining trust and a relationship back with my 5 adult children, and to be able to be in their lives again and them, trusting me to have a genuine relationship with my seven grandchildren, and my four great grandchildren it means the world to me. The most awarding part of being a mom grandmom and great grandmom is to own my own home cooking holiday dinners, and having all 16 of my children under the same roof celebrating life together as a family 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒

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

Christmas 2019, we decided to exchange gifts on Christmas Eve but it was strange. I didn’t get any gifts and I was feeling some kind of way. Still absolutely a good and memorable time. The next day on Christmas I cook Christmas dinner and all the children & grandchildren, came over. No great grandchildren at the time. But they came in on Christmas Day carrying tons and tons of gifts for me their mom all I could do was cry and tell them how much I love them and how they mean the world to me.

What would you do with $20,000?

I will put $5000 in the savings and I will use the other $15,000 & rent some sort of a transportation that holds all of my family to go on a road trip. I know I can’t make up with them for all the years that I was on drugs but From this day FORWARD I just want to share good times with them to continue to show them that I love them #FAMILYLOVE
