Happy October! Wow, how did we get here so fast? I hope you are all enjoying the change of seasons. Brisk air and fall foliage have already begun, and I have taken full advantage of cider doughnuts and apple picking. Cheers to time with your family and autumn festivities!
I am thrilled to introduce our newest mom of the month for October. Please welcome mom, friend, world traveler, and fashion industry veteran Candy Chheang as our featured mom this month!!
Candy and I used to work at the same fashion company, often communing together to the NYC design office. She has always been a very lively and caring person- loving to travel and see new places.
I was able to catch up with Candy and ask her a few questions about her experiences being a mother. Read our Q&A below!
Q & A
Q: What has been your favorite vacation/ trip you have taken with your son?
A: My favorite trip with my son was when we went to Sedona, Arizona.
Q: What was the biggest change in your life when you moved to the US? How has it made you a stronger mom?
A: The biggest change in my life was raising my son alone, it made me a stronger mom because I have to be in a lot roles. I have to be a mom, a dad, and sometime I have to be his friend ( that role is the hardest).
Q: If you could give single moms one piece of advice what would it be?
A: You need to be strong because that will help you fight any obstacles you might face.
Q: What is the cutest thing your son has said or done?
A: When he was 4 or 5 he told me he will never get married. He said he wants to take me anywhere around the world, buy me a big house, and a BMW car.
Q: Would you rather have pizza or french fries?
A: I’d rather have a pizza.
Q: What is your favorite fall shoe or boot brand?
A: Lucky Brand!
A big thanks to Candy for taking the time to chat with me! I’m glad I was able to share some of her motherhood journey with the RBP community.
