When you sacrifice your own life to make sure your kids are breathing and alive and then you watch them grow up day by day and start telling you “ I love you, mommy !” They give me hope and they help me to be a better person everyday ! They taught me so much patience in my life, courage, strength and determination to help them grow up with moral values and guide them to the right path in life ( that’s a reward as a single mom ) to see my kids grow up with love and compassion.

As a single mom who gave birth to my two kids alone in the hospital , I would say inner strength to keep pushing in life , to face my daily challenges alone because my two little kids depend on me 24/7 I can’t fall down but inner strength to get up everyday and make sure they are comfortable and okay. They taught me how to keep moving , to be a better version of myself. Everyday is always a sweet accomplishment for me and my kids to look back and proud of ourselves ! My kids are tough and brave

I would pay off some of my debt, pay rent, get a used SUV so my two kids are comfortable, get my kids a passport so they can travel if we have extra money, save to pay for a sitter so I can work , pay some of my student loans , fix my teeth because I used my savings paying some of my kids basic needs since they were born since I am a single mom of two , I would help my family back in the Philippines to have a comfortable house especially my parents , I would put some savings for my kids future.
