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

The most rewarding part of being a mom is watching my children grow into their unique personality, knowing I’ve helped shape their hearts, values, and dreams. It’s the little moments—when they feel safe enough to be themselves, when they look to me for comfort, or when they accomplish something they’ve worked hard for—that reminds me of how rewarding this journey is.

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

A memory I’ll never forget is watching my oldest son reach for his little brother’s hand as they walked into school together for the first time—Pre-K and 4th grade. In that simple moment, he became his protector, his guide, and his biggest supporter. Seeing them ride the bus, share spirit days, and navigate life side by side reminds me that their bond is one of the greatest blessings of motherhood.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, I would rebuild stability for my family after experiencing homelessness. Securing a safe home would give me the foundation to not only provide them with the security they deserve but also allow me to help other moms facing hard seasons. Once we’re stable, I can pour back into my community and continue the mission of my 5013c B.Rose bringing hope and strength to others.
