What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

Watching them grow and thrive and be better than you. You see yourself in them but a more polished version.

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

My youngest had open heart surgery at 4 months old. She has TOF, but she is thriving and has no restrictions physically at 12. My oldest daughter, 17, is very athletic and plays many sports, and has had some injuries, but always bounces back. My memories are of her many games that I have pictures of, many. My son, the oldest, (will be 22 end of April) has manifested a life for himself, currently attends Dartmouth and will graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Chemistry.

What would you do with $20,000?

Being newly divorced, I would take the kids on a nice vacation and then invest in a forever home for us.
