What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

Watching my little girl get bigger and stronger every day. Waking up seeing her face everyday gives me the motivation I need to be a better person and make my life what it needs to be for my family and to be the mother she deserves that I was never able to have. Watching her grow makes me believe in a better future. It makes me believe in things that I never thought possible for my life.

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

The first time she smiled. The first time my daughter smiled at me will forever be one of my favorite memories. ‘Til this day nothing is more beautiful than her smiling at me

What would you do with $20,000?

I would use it to build a better life for my daughter. It would go towards moving to a place away from my father in law and other people in our family that don’t support us, to a place where my husband and I could freely raise her in a home we’d make ours. Somewhere she could go to good schools and where she would have a real opportunity at great things in life where she could be happy and the people surrounding her would do nothing but love her indefinitely the way I do
