What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is knowing that I have created something so perfect and so pure in this crazy world. There is so much negativity and a lot that doesn't make sense in the world but being a mom makes sense and makes everything better. When ever he has a new saying or a new excitement it shows that there are still good things in the world that we can be excited about. Having someone to love unconditional and who is a built in best friend is the best part.

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

How to love my self. My son is the most important person in my life but if I don't feel happy with myself or who I am I know it effects him. I know that I am at my best when he is happy and healthy and I need to keep that going for both of us. Motherhood taught me to squeeze him a little tighter every time he gives me a hug. I want him to always remember the feeling he had when he would give me a hug.

What would you do with $20,000?

Create a better future for my son. Put it towards being able to get a forever home so he always has a place to call home and feel safe.
