I was not sure if I wanted to post about this, B/c I am still ashamed that it has taken me this long to accomplish this goal that I've had for 10yrs, but I feel that maybe this post could help some people that might need a push to just do it!!!
I FINALLY GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL!!!!!!!!
I seriously don't know what took me so long other then having babies and working full time, but it feels so good! Josh and I married my senior year and then had Mr. Caleb, so I never finished High school. I just kept putting it off ,So I decided this year was the year, so I studied my head off and then went over to uvu for my lovely 7 hr test, let me tell you, I have never had such a headache in my life I think my brain was on over load. It amazed me of the age range of people in the class from 17 all the way to 55 it was crazy!! So if I can do it anyone can do it, seriously I was never a straight A student I never studied all I wanted to do is get married and have a family, so I guess I thought I didn't need my education, boy was I so wrong. I always thought I could just stay home with the kids and maybe work a part time job. Joshua's accident has made me do things I would have never done before, I have really had to step out of my comfort zone and push myself to get things done! I am so proud of myself for taking this step to a better life for my family and myself, I have been so very blessed to have all the many family and friends that gave me the confidence I needed to accomplish this goal. I hope that I can be an example to others and to let people know that it's never to late to go back and to Just do it!!!!
