alone with my celebratory dessert lol

So 4 years ago next month I started back for another degree a month before I got pregnant with my daughter. Tonight I submitted my last assignment 2 weeks before I have my son. In those 4 years I had 4 surgeries (including a section) planned a wedding and raised my baby girl... I feel so proud of myself!

So after I put my daughter down and Took a shower I had a huge piece of raspberry danish... Now I'm feeling a little sad because I'm 37 weeks tomorrow, hubby is away on business and everyone seemed to ignore this huge accomplishment and had other plans... Just a little pity party I guess... I hate hormones

Thanks ladies..  Its times like this that remind me that I really do have sone one who knows what I'm going through... And all of you in school or wanting to be in school... It does seem impossible but I'm living proof it is just a matter of determination! Use your beautiful babies as inspiration and fuel

PS my danish was crazy good

You are my hero!!!
Moms like you inspire me so much!
no everyone is going to applaud your tremendous efforts. Either they don't value education or don't have any idea how hard this is! I'm currently taking prerequisites for PA school. It scares me so much. I'm expecting our first baby and I hope to get accepted by the time he is 2. I won't be easy, but I know it will be worth it.
keep your head up and enjoy your dessert! You deserve it :)

I'm proud of you! I'll be finished in the spring and I can't wait. A marriage, divorce, moving back to the states from Germany and starting over, followed by a new boyfriend and new baby all in 4 years. Yikes!

You're the perfect example for your baby girl though. Congratulations on everything.
