You can get through it, you can get
through anything you put your mind to. I
was scared to go back to school after my
divorce and being 10 years after I had
dropped out of high school. Part of me
almost back out but another part of me
(the part that thinks about my boys
future) told me I had to do it for the
boys and I's future. Once I got my foot in
the door and started to do the work I
relized I do have it in me to get good
grades, I sucked in high school. I am now
going into my second year of college and
for the most part I enjoy it, it is hard
work and some days I feel like giving up
but I just keep going forward knowing that
the ending results will be gratifying.
So when you feel scared, or have the
feeling of this is not for you think of
baby Rowan and the future for the two of
you. What school will provide for the two
of you in the end. I wish you all the luck
to you and your baby girl and you will get
through it, hold your head high and have
positive thoughts.
Good luck,
Heather

Lol at throwing it off a bridge!
We've all made mistakes. You'll do great!
You seem so strong and like you have it
all together. It may not be easy, but it
will be something you can smile about
after it's all done.

When it seems like it's really tough, just
remind yourself that you do have options.
You have the choice to go back to school.
You have a future that you are looking
forward to and the opportunities and
freedom to choose what kind of future you
and your daughter will have. When you
think of it that way you feel proud of
yourself for making those choices and not
taking the easy road but challenging
yourself because you know it will make
your life better in the end. Just keep
your head high and when you are around
those annoying people remember that you
have a goal that you have set for yourself
and you aren't going to let petty things
stop you from acheiving them. My mom
struggled through university and two jobs
when we were kids and I have always been
so proud of her for doing that. Now, I
will have to return to university after my
baby is born and do the same, but I know I
can do it because my mom did with 4 kids,
not just one. And you can do it too, and
your daughter will know that and be proud
of you when she gets old enough to realise
how hard you worked to give her a better
life.

That's soo true. My mom did that too. My
dad was off being a loser at the time.
But Rowan will definitely be sooo proud of
you and have so much respect for you as a
woman once she's grown. I was always
proud of my mom for doing what she did but
after having Chu my respect for her
reached a brand new level. Once I went
back to work I called her on my lunch
break and told her so. She was my hero.
You'll be Rowan's hero. Plus you already
have my respect for making the decision to
go back to school. You're a very strong
woman, Tanya.
yes, it's definitely not an option to not
do it. but the thought of when the time
comes to go back is still bringing me
down. I'm not looking forward to the
same, boring, irritating thing every
single day. Where every minute drags
right on. I definitely need to become 100
percent independent, for Rowan. To tell
the truth, the future really freaks me
out. When i think about it, sometimes I
have no idea how I'm going to make it
through university with a baby, and be
able to afford it. I get really scared
when I think about it. so i don't, well,
i try not to too often. i think i can
work my butt off, but what if that isn't
enough. blegggh
