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

The most rewarding part of being a mom is seeing your child grow into their own person watching them learn, laugh, overcome challenges, and develop values and confidence you helped shape. There’s a deep joy in knowing that your love, sacrifices, and guidance are forming the foundation of their life. It's those little moments random hugs, hearing "I love you," or seeing them succeed that make everything worth it

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

I’ll never forget is when we completed a Bible plan together that I had selected called “Be Still.” It was a special moment just the two of us intentionally slowing down, reflecting, and connecting through God’s word. A few days after we finished, I got a text from her suggesting a new plan: “A Change Will Do You Good.” I was so moved. Not only was she willing to continue, but the title hit me right in the heart. It was exactly what I needed in that moment.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I had $20,000, I would use it to create a fresh start, a peaceful and stable home for my daughter and me. After investing so much of myself emotionally, financially, and spiritually into a marriage that lasted less than two years, I’ve learned the value of pouring into something that truly gives back: our future. That money would help us find a place where we can not only live comfortably, but also grow, heal, and build new memories
