This pile of books is some of the required reading for my upcoming fall term. That's right friends, I'm going back to school. Earlier this year I transferred to the State University of New York, which has an awesome program that will allow me to finish my BA via distance learning and independent study. I'm double majoring in Literature (already finished) and Anthropology. Classes start on Monday and I'm equally excited and nervous.
It's been a long time since my college days and now I have the added demands of motherhood and running a household, but I found this print that is inspiring me.
I feel like finishing my degree will inspire myself and my children to reach their full potential. And that makes me happy!

Good for you! And look at all those glorious books :) I never thought I'd have LESS time to read once I graduated... funny how that works.

Rach, good for you. You can do it!! It might not be easy. I only had Matt when I finished and was only doing one class at a time, so you are definitely taking on a lot, but I know you can do it. I hope that things go well. I think you are awesome.
