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

The most rewarding part of being a mom is watching my boys grow into kind, talented, and resilient young men. Seeing their passions come to life, whether it’s excelling in school, creating music, or playing basketball, fills me with pride. The love, laughter, and unforgettable moments we share make every challenge worth it. Knowing that I am their biggest supporter and safe space is the greatest gift.

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

One memory I will never forget is when my youngest son won a school award for being the smartest in his class his excitement and pride were priceless. For my oldest, I’ll always remember the first time he performed his own song in front of a crowd. Seeing his confidence and passion on stage made me realize how unstoppable he is. Those moments reminded me that all the sacrifices and hard work as a mom are worth it.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, I would invest in my children’s future by supporting their education and creative passions. I’d help my oldest take his music career to the next level and ensure my youngest has everything he needs to keep excelling in school. I’d also use a portion to secure reliable transportation for activities and medical, allowing me to be there for every important moment. This money would be life changing, helping me continue to build a strong foundation for my boys.
