Wonderful! I tell you, an education is something you’ll always have that no one can ever take away. Having that piece of paper means a lot.

I KNOW you can do it! I’m doing fulltime work away from home, full time grad school (which is 6 credits/2 classes a semester) and have Nicky, Tom (cause you know DHs take time!) and pg with twins. (Probably not as hard has having so many kids outside the womb, and I do plan to take off the summer at least!) It is stressful, but it will be so worth it when I’m DONE! (can’t wait!)

Even if you have to cut it to part time (undergrad is usually 4 classes for full time, so just 2 classes) that would move you quickly towards your goal and should be easy to start with. Maybe once you’re in the groove of studying and balancing everything you could do full time. Either way you’ll be marching towards your goal!

Congrats Michelle!! Just think, you can really have a family homework table!! Dave better brush up on his cooking skills so you can study!

I’m so excited for you too. What a fun adventure it would be. And then you wouldn’t have that particular “what if” laying there anymore. :)

Congratulations! Making the decision is the first step. I wish you all the best in going back to school! I have similar fears and I didn’t go to a “real” college (business school) so I don’t have a degree to start from either.

I’m so excited for you!

I am a full time student and mom! I will graduate with my Bachelor’s in May! I won’t lie, it is HARD to manage a family and school, but it is WORTH it! Follow your dreams- it will be a satisfying journey.
