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

The most rewarding part of being a mom is seeing the bond we've created as a family, despite the challenges. I have witnessed their growth and development firsthand. Even though there's an age gap and their dad and I are no longer together, I prioritize keeping our family connected. Supporting each other through milestones, celebrating our achievements together and making memories makes every effort worthwhile. It's incredible to know that no matter what, we are there for one another.

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

My daughter Genesis graduated grade school and attends Coppin State University. Just watching your child graduate is an indescribable moment filled with pride. It's a culmination of years of hard work, perseverance, and growth, symbolizing not just their achievements but also the love and support me and their father provided along the way. As she walk across that stage, you can't help but reflect on the journey that brought the family to this extraordinary milestone. It takes a village!

What would you do with $20,000?

I would focus on creating lasting memories and enhancing our well-being. I would set aside funds for a family vacation, allowing us to spend quality time together and experience new adventures. Next, I would prioritize education by investing in extracurricular activities, camps or tutoring for Genesis, Eric, and Egypt to support their interests and academic growth. I’d also consider putting some money into a savings fund for future needs to ensure we’re prepared for any unexpected emergency.
