What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a mom is seeing your love reflected in your children. It’s in the way they feel safe with you, grow because of you, and carry the values you’ve taught them. Watching them become strong, happy, and confident and knowing you played such a powerful role in that is a feeling nothing else compares to.

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

Motherhood has taught me strength I didn’t know I had, patience I had to grow into, and a love deeper than anything I’ve ever known. As a single mom of four, it’s shown me how to be resilient, selfless, and determined no matter the circumstances. Most of all, it’s taught me that even on the hardest days, the love I give is shaping lives in the most powerful way.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I were given $20,000, I would use it to catch up on bills and reduce debt that’s built up while supporting my four children on a single income. Covering the mortgage, utilities, food, and school expenses has meant falling behind at times, so this would provide much-needed stability and relief. I would also set aside funds for ongoing essentials and my children’s needs, including college. Most importantly, I would use a portion to take my family on a meaningful trip something we rarely do.
