What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part about being a mom is to watch the joy and happiness in my son’s eyes, even through the more challenging times, as he develops new skills and capabilities. Knowing that all the hard work and sacrifices I make, have and always will, support him no matter what, giving him a better life than I could ever dream to have.

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

It’s hard to just choose one memory when I hold each stepping stone near and dear to my heart. But, the day I went into labor and had my son was only the beginning of the most magical moments, the first time I laid eyes on him and got to hold him was so bittersweet. The way he looks back at me, the smiles and sounds he makes, his mannerisms, will always take my heart back to the first day I held my little baby in my arms for the first time.

What would you do with $20,000?

$20,000 would help me and my family tremendously as we are currently on the hunt to buy a forever home. With a 2 person income we are able to live comfortably however managing to come up with a down payment is harder than expected. My husband and I are 22/23 and are just starting out, so a lot of places are not as willing to loan out large sums of money. We would love to be able to provide even more for our son than we already do and $20,000 will definitely help to make that happen!
