What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The feeling of never feeling or being alone anymore. Knowing that after so many years of never having the family and love I always dreamed of , I could make one of my own. Omari has been the biggest blessing in my life & has truly saved me. I just want to be better and do better for him. He’s so amazing and so smart and I take pride in knowing I’m doing my best to be the best teacher and friend to him. I learn more about myself and him everyday, truly. My biggest inspiration

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

We lost our apartment and had to sleep in our car for a few months before finding another place. Omaris dad still had his job so while he worked we spent most days at parks the library or driving around. Although it’s something I never wanted my son to experience we pushed through and found a way. I tried my best to keep him from knowing what all was going on and did a pretty good job considering He thought we were on vacation for 2 months had lots of fun in the proc& tons of memories were made

What would you do with $20,000?

Shortly after finding a place to live again my man lost his job. He continued searching but we soon lost our car due to non payment. With this money I’d put a down payment on a car again. We’ve been walking everywhere for 2 months and it’s no fun. We also lost everything when we got evicted and stayed in our car So I would work on replacing everything my son lost and getting furniture as we still need a lot of things. Either way I’m grateful for this opportunity and thank you for listening 🫶🏼
