What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is witnessing the world through AJ,Micah and Matthew’s eyes. They are a true reflection of God’s favor in my life, especially after losing my firstborn to stillbirth and facing the uncertainty of whether I would have children. Micah and Matthew bring me endless joy as I watch them grow and learn. It’s incredible to see their resilience and determination as they navigate school and life. I don’t take my role as a mom for granted and thank God daily for them.

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

One memory of my kids that I will never forget is the day they were born. Both of them were determined to arrive in their own way, and their uniqueness is so evident today. Micah made a last-minute turn, and I can vividly recall that moment. He was born sunny side up, and just like that, he always finds the positives in everyone. Matthew, on the other hand, arrived via c-section, butt first, and he’s always ready to jump into action, no matter the challenge.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would use $20,000 to not only take my children on a memorable vacation but also to treat myself to a unique experience just for me as a mom. For the past seven years, I’ve poured all my energy into everyone else, but this year, I’m determined to take control of my life again and prioritize filling my own cup first. I want to live fully, enjoy every moment, and create lasting memories with my kids. I love myself enough to put my well-being first, so I can be healthy and happy for them.
