The most rewarding part of being a mom is being able to learn and become a better person for my son and baby on the way, I've learned what it means to truly love unconditionally and enjoy life. In becoming a mother, I've learned to make my own organically made sunscreen, hand sanitizer, tallow moisturizers, and learn more herbalism. One thing I'm so grateful for is to be able to work from home on my business and be present for my son; we're able to learn, garden, cook, and even do art together.

One memory I'll never forget is seeing the progress of a child learning and growing. From the moment my son was born at home, to the moment he first held his baby cousin who is only a year apart, to understanding what it means to be kind and attentive to other children, and now when my son is so eager to meet his new sibling!

If selected, I would use the $20,000 to help establish my small business. While I currently have an anime/gaming inspired clothing brand, I also wanted to share my knowledge by opening a new online store for all the organically made products I create. This includes all necessary supplies, marketing, and inventory needed to start up. Since I do make everything homemade with all ingredients naturally occurring, all products will be made to order with a limited shelf life.
