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

Watching them grow and learn while they navigate through life is unreal. When I get to watch the spark on their faces when they’re happy and learning it is such an amazing feeling. Seeing them grow more into their personalities and the relationships they build is just so cool.

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

We did a photo shoot just the kids and I soon after the divorce was finalized with their dad. There was such a sense of peace in the day and we had so much fun playing at the beach. The light shined through in our photos and I think of that memory and it reminds me of all the good that will come into our lives and how much we have grown as a family. My profile picture is from that day!

What would you do with $20,000?

I would most definitely use some to take the family somewhere super fun! We’d love to go to Disneyland! They really want to go on an airplane! I would probably plan several other small trips so we could have maximum experiences! We want to stay in a tree house this summer and get it lots of time at the beach!
