What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part about being a mother is seeing your children grow into the little people you wish for them to become. Teaching them love, empathy, kindness and sincerity and them showing these characteristics is what makes my heart full of joy. Hearing them yell “Mom!” and running to hug and kiss me as soon as I walk into the door after a long day at work makes it all worth it at the end of the day!

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

Motherhood has taught me so many things. I think the most important thing that is has taught me is patience and compassion. My whole outlook on life and people in general changed when I brought my little humans into this world. I learned to put my perspective on life aside and truly think outside of the box as well as truly trying to out myself in someone else’s shoes. Children are so innocent and their outlook is just black and white. Learning to see the world through their eyes has been a gift

What would you do with $20,000?

If I won the $20,000 I would finally be able to put money down on a car for myself. We have not had a car since 2024 and I spent the last two years saving every penny I could to buy my oldest daughter a cash car first. She takes care of my son for me while I work since I cannot afford daycare and helps take my sister to her doctor appointments so it only made sense for her to have a car before me. This money would be a huge blessing. I’m just grateful to even be considered for this opportunity.
