What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is watching Mason grow into his own person—his laughter, milestones, and even challenges. Knowing I am his safe place, his biggest cheerleader, and his constant source of love makes every sacrifice worth it. Seeing him learn, love, and chase his dreams reminds me that every late night and tough decision is building his future. Being his mom is the greatest gift, and nothing compares to the joy of seeing the world through his eyes.

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

One memory I’ll never forget is when Mason told me, “You make being both parents look easy.” In that moment, every sacrifice felt worth it. It reminded me that even on the hardest days, he sees my love and effort. Knowing he feels secure and proud of me is the greatest reward. That one sentence will stay with me forever—it’s proof that I’m giving him my all, and that’s enough.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I were awarded $20,000, I would invest it wisely to create a stronger future for Mason and me. A portion would go toward my investment property—whether for upgrades, maintenance, or expanding my real estate portfolio—to build long-term financial stability. I’d also set aside funds for Mason’s education and future opportunities, ensuring he has everything he needs to succeed. Ultimately, I’d use it to create generational wealth and security for us both.
