What's the most rewarding part about being a dad?

Honestly, seeing my kids grow and enjoy their childhood. They have a long way to go and they already have more than me and my wife did. And I don't mean financially, I mean they get so much love from us and we joke and have fun. Spend time together when ever we can. I hope to one day give them all they could ever need but for now I am so grateful that they have us and that they are thriving in life and in school. Their mom teaches them that education is important and I teach them to have dreams.

Why do you strive to be the best dad you can be?

There were a lot of things in life that I had to teach myself and learn the hard way. I made mistakes and learned from them but I want my kids to have the best chance on life and so I am trying to set an example. I am 32 years old and am working on my education and trying to get a career I don't want my kids to let life pass them by. I want them to make better choices than I did. But I also make sure to encourage them and make them laugh everyday, and show them love.

How would you use the $25,000?

My wife always prioritized education from an early age and so she has a good career, however when I was young I wasn't encouraged to focus on school. This has cause us to struggle financially for years. My daughter is already 10 and we don't have a house yet because I don't have a career yet. I am working on that but our dream is to at least get a small house for our family so that my daughter can have a fifteen birthday celebration. We would use this to help us make our dream come true
