Connect What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is spending time with my children—laughing, learning, and growing together. Watching them excel in academics and athletics fills me with pride, but more than their achievements, I love seeing their confidence shine. Knowing that the love and support I give helps them be their best selves is the greatest joy. Seeing them thrive, not just in what they do but in who they are, is the biggest blessing of all.

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

One memory I will never forget is the day each of my children was born. The moment I held them in my arms for the first time, everything else faded away. In that instant, I felt a love deeper than anything I had ever known—a love that would shape my life forever. Looking into their tiny faces, I knew my purpose was to love, guide, and protect them. That feeling, that overwhelming joy, is something I will cherish for the rest of my life.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I had $20,000, I’d start a business to pass down to my children—teaching them valuable skills while building generational wealth. It’s not just about making money but creating a legacy of ownership, hard work, and opportunity. I want them to see the power of entrepreneurship and know they can build something lasting. This business would be a foundation for our family’s future, ensuring success for generations to come.
