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

The most rewarding part of being a mom is the unconditional love and joy my children bring. Each day, I see their unique personalities unfold, their laughter filling our home with joy, and their curiosity about the world inspires me. My journey as a single mom has taught me the importance of strength and perseverance, and I strive to instill those values in my kids. The love we share, the lessons we learn together, and the moments of connection. And watching every stage brings new fun.

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

There are countless little moments that I treasure with my kids, but at this stage in our lives, I particularly love bonding over our shared interests. Taking my son to his first concert was a full-circle experience for me; music and concerts played a significant role in my own upbringing, and sharing that with him was truly special. With my daughter, we have a blast exploring hair and fashion together—she's my little best friend!

What would you do with $20,000?

If I had $20,000, I would focus on catching up on bills and ensuring our financial stability, which would provide peace of mind for my family. Once that’s taken care of, I’d love to treat my kids to an exciting trip. Whether it’s a fun beach vacation or a visit to a theme park, I want to give them an experience filled with joy and adventure. Balancing our responsibilities while also enjoying quality time as a family is essential, and this would allow us to do that!
