What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

I'd have to day the most rewarding part is knowing all of my struggles has genuinely changed the narrative for my kids. I grew up with no one. My mom abandoned me for drugs my dad was never around and the 2 people that raised me died when I was young. I have been a generational breaker and to watch my kids go through these struggles with me and become not only successful in school but be fantastic people with huge hearts is the most rewarding part.

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

I learned the hard way the mental load of motherhood. Being alone most my life and dealing with abuse with their dad it gave me such a different perspective on how much moms actually have to worry and deal with. It literally never ends and until you do it you don't get it. So my biggest lesson is appreciation and gratitude.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would pay off my credit card debt I have accumulated to try to stay above water, I'd fill our refrigerator for the first time in months, I'd pay for my daughters drivers Ed because I'll never be able to afford it with out this and I'd pay for her to also take the cna class she wants to take which I also could never afford with out this. And if there is any left I may get myself a little botox..... hahahaha. I'm just super grateful to even be considered.
