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

Motherhood feels rewarding to me through the deep love and connection I share with my teenagers. Knowing I’m shaping their future and being there for them every step of the way brings me so much fulfillment. Watching them thrive, grow, and become independent, knowing I’ve been their constant support, is incredibly meaningful. On top of that, managing such a full life—while spreading kindness and making a difference in my community—reinforces the sense of accomplishment I feel as a mom.

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

My best memory with my son was in Egypt when he noticed his older cousin struggling to keep up while swimming in the Mediterranean.Without hesitation,he turned back to help her,ensuring she made it safely to shore at her own pace,offering comfort without judgment.With my daughter,a trip to Cuba brought us closer as we disconnected from the world.During her teenage struggles,I shared wisdom that deepened our bond as mother and daughter and that connection still strengthens our relationship today.
