I’m a super mom — holding down home while my farmer husband’s gone, leading with love, faith, strength, and steady presence every day. 💛

What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part? Honestly—it’s chaos wrapped in tiny humans I’d burn the world down for. Most days I’m overwhelmed, touched out, and battling PPD/PPA in my own head… but somehow their laughs, their need for me, being their safe space. It’s messy, exhausting, and heavy—but they’re my reason to keep showing up.

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

I’m not in control—and I’m learning that’s okay. The house can be a mess, things don’t have to be perfect, and I don’t need to have it all together. They’ve taught me to slow down… to choose the chaos, the laughter, the moments over the chores—because that’s what they’ll remember most.

What would you do with $20,000?

I’d take care of my family first, pay down what we need to, make life a little lighter & then make some memories with my kids. Maybe even throw in a hot holiday with a water park
