As a mother of 3 boys under the age of 9. I am anxiously optimistic about my upcoming 1st quarter of Nursing school starting on April 4th. I graduated high school 10 years ago and struggled a bit in school, needing an IEP or a 504 growing up. Now that my husband is out of Active Duty I have the privilege of going back to school. I have had tons of "nay Sayers" due to the fact that I do have 3 boys and I work with a high school marching band in the summer. Although these lyrics (I know cheesy right?) below are from Miley Cyrus hahahahaha sorry, I felt that they were extremely accurate for my situation and my "climb" to success. I wish you all the best! Much Love and good luck! I can almost see it. That dream I'm dreaming, but There's a voice inside my head saying You'll never reach it Every step I'm takin' Every move I make Feels lost with no direction, My faith is shakin' But I gotta keep tryin' Gotta keep my head held high There's always gonna be another mountain I'm always gonna wanna make it move Always gonna be an uphill battle Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose Ain't about how fast I get there Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side It's the climb The struggles I'm facing The chances I'm taking Sometimes might knock me down, but No I'm not breaking I may not know it, but These are the moments that I'm gonna remember most yeah just gotta keep goin', and I gotta be strong Just keep pushing on,cause There's always gonna be another mountain I'm always gonna wanna make it move Always gonna be an uphill battle Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose Ain't about how fast I get there Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side It's the climb There's always gonna be another mountain I'm always gonna wanna make it move Always gonna be an uphill battle Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose Ain't about how fast I get there Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side It's the climb Keep on movin' Keep climbin' Keep faith baby It's all about, it's all about The climb Keep the faith, keep your faith,

I have eight kids and a lot going in my life, yet I'm one and 1/2 semesters away from getting my BSN and doing it with honors. I couldn't have done it without the support if family and friends. I knew what I wanted and went for it. You can too!
