What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The best part about being a mom is getting to guide my son into becoming the man God has called him to be. I cherish watching him grow through every stage of life, helping him make better choices and learn lessons so he doesn’t have to repeat the same mistakes. I also love that I get to give him the childhood I didn’t have—filled with love, laughter, vacations, game nights, and unforgettable moments. Being his biggest cheerleader, whether in sports or in life, means everything to me. 💙

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

The biggest lesson motherhood has taught me is patience. Learning to slow down, listen, and truly be present with my child has made all the difference. I’ve also learned how important it is to keep an open mind and maintain strong, honest communication so my child feels safe coming to me—no matter if it’s something good or bad. Building that trust is everything. Motherhood has shown me the importance of recognizing patterns and behaviors early, so I can guide and support him through life.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I were to win the $20,000, the first thing I’d do is invest in my son’s future by putting money into his savings account. I’d also take the steps to get my license so I can open up my home, allowing me to be more present and available while building something meaningful for us. And with whatever is left, I’d treat myself to a well-deserved spa day and a mini vacation—because balance and self-care matter too. ✨
