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

The most rewarding thing about being a mom is knowing that the love from my son is the purest and most genuine gift I’ve ever received. Watching him grow, learn, and love so freely is a constant reminder of life’s greatest blessings. I have the honor of witnessing God’s work in the flesh every day through his laughter, kindness, and even the little moments that make life so meaningful. It’s an unconditional love like no other, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

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

One of my favorite memories as a mom was watching my son experience Christmas for the first time. The twinkle in his eyes as he took in the lights and decorations, the pure joy on his face as he unwrapped his gifts; it was truly magical. Seeing his excitement and wonder made me appreciate the season in a whole new way. It was a moment I’ll cherish forever.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I won $20,000, I’d use it to support my business and my son’s future. After losing my marketing job in ‘23, I took a leap of faith and started my own business in ‘24. This money would help repay startup costs and allow me to put funds into my son’s savings, giving him a strong foundation for the future. This prize would be a blessing in building a better life for us both.
