I feel incredibly blessed to have watched them grow into amazing adults who contribute so positively to their community and society. Seeing them graduate and build successful careers has been a true joy, and I’m grateful to have been by their side through every stage of their lives.
What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?Its the toughest career there is. It doesnt pay a salary and often comes with the lesson great sacrifice. Every gray hair I have carries a story but I would not change a single one.The stories I shared and the guidance I gave are reflected in the people they have become.I get to witness the results of all the love and hard work that went into raising them, and it fills me with pride. I know I will never graduate from this career I chose, and I am proud to be a lifelong student of motherhood.
What would you do with $20,000?Winning $20,000 would allow me to create another meaninful memory for my family. We would do a dream vacation and then I may use the left over to pay some bills.
