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

The most rewarding part of being a first time mom to twins is witnessing the extraordinary bond they share, and support each other is beautiful. The challenges are certainly there, but the triumphs—seeing them grow out of nicu level 4, asking each other if they are ok and giving each other hugs is all worth it from late nights to practicing letter sounds. They always ask if they are ok. Or one twin Sophia cries if sister cries. Just knowing I am raising caring loving daughters it’s all worth it.

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

One memory I will never forget is they day they came home from Nicu together!!. They had to meet so many milestones and we were worried they were not going to come home together as Esmie was almost a lb smaller. They both fought together to come home from learning how to feed growing and meeting other challenges. We lived in the hospital for 3 months so finally bringing them home to be with us was all worth while. Seeing them toghether in their home and in their twin bassinet was wonderful.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would save/invest it for my girls future college it is so important to see them thrive in their future and would love to have this as a kickstart to their future. As a twin mom financially has been navigating from diapers to special formula and even double everything. Saving is crucial for them to have their college saved.
