What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is seeing my daughter learn new things and interact with the world around her. I love to celebrate and share her milestones. I love being able to guide her along the way. I'm so grateful that I get to watch her grow up even though it seems too fast sometimes.

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

I will never forget the day my daughter was born. I had to have an emergency c-section and I was absolutely terrified on the way to the operating room. All my mental preparation and birth plan went out the window. Thankfully, I was awake during the procedure and I got to see her soon after she was born. I could never forget the moment we first met. Every thing in the world was right in that moment and a new purpose was born in me.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would pay down debt and start a savings for my daughter with most of the money. Then I would get passports for the both of us and start planning our first international trip. It is my dream to be able to travel with my daughter and see new places together. I'd love for both her and I to have memories of seeing the world together.
