What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is watching them grow up, make mistakes and handle them with grace and kindness. Life throws many curve balls and to watch them adjust their swings and hit a home run and get the best outcome possible is amazing.

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

The biggest lesson motherhood has taught me is what unconditional love and support means. I became a mom at 17. My parents passed away when I was 19 and 22yrs old. Not having the best childhood, learning what unconditional love means through being a mother myself. Unwavering support, no matter what just being present.

What would you do with $20,000?

Currently having 4 kids at home, 12,11,10 and 4yrs old. I’d love to pay off some debt and continue to support the kids in their sports and activities. Even working full time this is challenging. I’d also love a honeymoon. We have been married for 3 years and together for 7 years and adopted 3 kids in that time which was financially hard.
