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

For a lot of moms, the most rewarding part is watching their child grow—seeing them overcome challenges, hit milestones, and turn into someone strong and kind. For me, it’s simpler. After everything my daughter has been through, the most rewarding part is just seeing her happy. Healthy. Living. Every laugh, every normal moment, every day without hospital walls—it’s a gift. And I don’t take a second of it for granted.

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

I’ll never forget the first time my boys met their baby sister in the hospital. That moment is forever etched in my heart. The way their eyes lit up, the gentle way they looked at her—it completely melted me. A memory I’ll cherish for a lifetime.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I had the chance, I’d take some time off to make memories with my family on a special trip—just us, soaking it all in. And I’d pay for my oldest son’s education so he can chase his dreams without anything holding him back. Nothing means more to me than seeing my family happy and thriving!
