It’s been 14 weeks since we became pregnant and I’m beginning to show!  With a bit of a hump, dressing creatively has been a challenge (especially since not everyone knows I’m pregnant yet).  But after Thanksgiving, everyone should know and I will be able to show off my bump with pride.  It’s pretty amazing to watch my body change so drastically and so quickly, though it’s also a bit unnerving.

Ugh.  How do they do it?  How do those folks go back to school to get a masters, a doctorate, or a few of each?!  I used to think I could be a professional student but now here I am, at the beginning of my masters program and I’m wondering how I’ll ever be able to get through it!  The homework, the frustrating assignments, the added difficulty of taking classes independently and online… I’m not sure how to make it work successfully!

My mentor was telling me about a student who was able to finish all her classes (that should have taken 3-5 years) in a matter of months!  How does someone find that type of stamina and motivation!  After three hours, I’m beat!  I just hope that I can make it through to the end.  I have to remember that the goal is to become a teacher and that all of these requirements are just hoops to jump through.
