The Night Before

Tomorrow begins my graduate school journey. It is, not only, my first day of classes, but also, my four year old son's first day of pre-k at his new school and my eight month old son's first day of daycare. I am excited, nervous, and a bit overwhelmed. I completed my bachelor's degree when my first son was not even a year old, but that was with a lot of help. This time, I have less help, another child, and a heavier course load. I do still have a lot of help, and I am super organized when it comes to school and work (which is good considering I am taking 12 hours of classes and working 20 hours a week). I am a little nervous about doing all of this on top of making sure my four year old gets his homework finished, they both get fed, loved, bathed, in bed on time, and I don't fall asleep with them (as is normally the case). While I know I will meet many challenges, I feel I am cut out for the job, and I am doing this for all of our futures after all. Hopefully keeping this blog will help me keep a bit of a level head. Well I better get to bed now, we all have an early morning tomorrow.
