What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

Seeing my children grow up and become good people. Being a teen mom was hard but my oldest is now 20 years old. He finished high school and graduated first in my family to do so. He has a great career, and now is a great role model for his younger siblings.

What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?

When my son was 2 years old I was falsely accused of cyber stalking by a ex boyfriend. He got my second son taken from me for 45 days (worse time of my life). I fought hard to get my son back. Suffering from anxiety attacks. I thought I would never see my son again. But I did not give up. I got my son back with charges droppedwith proof of my innocence. He is now 14 years old. And makes me proud everyday.

What would you do with $20,000?

It would help me purchase a manufactured home for me and my children. It will give us stability. Something I never got to feel especially with having a child so young. I want to leave behind a home my kids can always come to and feel safe. Even when I am no longer here on this earth to take care of them.
