The most rewarding part of being a mom is watching my children and my foster babies grow into who God created them to be. Seeing their personalities shine through despite some of their personal struggles is simply satisfying. Seeing their confidence, skills, emotions grow in a positive direction is just a blessing, and knowing I had a part in guiding them with love, patience, and prayer, that’s the ultimate goal and reward. It’s not always easy but I was called to SERVE.

I've spent so much money on them for daily living, healthcare, desires, needs, utilities and etc. They e traveled locally and internationally. They have been on cruise ships and road trips. They have been to Disney world and stayed i a very expensive Star Wars themed house. Out of all of those big expensive things that took alot of planning, I took them on a 90 min riverboat dinner cruise and they said "Mom did her BIG ONE" I said so Disney and Star Wars wasn't my big one? It was very COSTLY.

If I had the opportunity to win $20,000, I would save it for emergency funds and land. My husband and I made the life-changing decision to leave our jobs to care full-time for three special need teens. One of our biggest dreams is to purchase land not just for us, but to secure a generational wealth and stability for our children. Farm life can help us all emotionally, physically and financially.
