Growing
up I was always the odd one out. I developed the name hermit from my parents
because I enjoyed being by myself and was often caught doing my homework. I
always told myself that despite being called names and being considered a nerd
that I would succeed and stand out amongst the rest. I did not have perfect grades but when I put
my mind to something I either achieved my goal or over achieved. I had always
wanted to go to college, partly because my children and myself would have a
better future if something were to happen to Seth. But also because my love for
learning and to set and example for Levi, Rebekah and Asher.
Long
story short, I am proud to say my hard work has finally paid off. After two and
a half years of waiting, hours of home work along with taking care of two
toddlers, delivering two babies, a wedding and moving twice… I will finally be
getting my degree.
Though
this may not seem like much to the average person, I have looked forward to
this day for many years. On top of all of this, I will also be the first in my
family to graduate college. I am not saying that I am better than my family,
but it does give me a sense of pride.
Hopefully
in the future while the kids are in school I can further my education. Until
then I will enjoy having normal vision from not staring at a computer all day,
and focus my time on being a better mother and wife.
