After being so excited about starting my blog, I soon neglected writing a single word in it. So, what happened? Well, I started college for the second time around.

The first time I went to college was right after high school. I dropped out in my first semester because I was pregnant with my son. Working and earning a living had to take priority. Now, I know that there are many young mothers who balance work, school, and children. I didn't think I could do it. I really don't think I could have. I didn't want it bad enough. 12 years passed, and I finally decided it was time to start working on a degree.

I'm in school full time, and working full time, and of course - my kids are a full time job. My kids are my favorite job - and the hardest.

I just completed my first semester - phew!!! I managed to pull off a 4.0GPA. Wow, school is not as hard as I thought it would be. At the same time, it consumes almost every free minute of the day.

I'm grateful for the winter break. I finally have a little time to relax and regroup. I've been able to enjoy the holiday with my children and look forward to the New Year.
