What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is seeing your children grow into who they’re meant to be—knowing that your love, guidance, and sacrifices helped shape that journey. It’s in the little moments—the hugs, the laughter, the “I love yous”—and in the big ones, like watching them overcome challenges, chase their dreams, and make you proud in ways words can’t explain. It’s knowing that no matter how hard life gets, you’re their safe place—and they are your legacy.

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

There are so many memories I’ll never forget—their first giggles, their first tiny 'I love you,' the wobbly first steps that turned into confident strides, and that emotional first day of school when I had to let go just a little. Each moment, each milestone, is etched into my heart. Those 'firsts' weren’t just theirs—they were mine too. And they’re the memories that remind me why being their mom is the greatest gift of all.

What would you do with $20,000?

I’d invest in my children’s future, pay off debts, build security, and create opportunities we’ve only dreamed of. I’ve already done more for less—sacrificed sleep, comfort, and time to make sure my kids are good.
