I have been guilty of being overambitious every once in a while during my life. This is one of those times. Too much, too fast. But I feel there aren't any other choices to be made than the ones I've made. This graduate program is too good to pass up. It's going to be a TON of work! I'm going to be exhausted! I'm going to be edgy. But to walk away after 2.5 years with a Masters in education that I will be able to use in an area that I was definetly interested in getting into. The right circumstances are here and now.
I am a fairly new mother. I have a 3 year old and a 8month old. Both girls. Both demanding. Both wonderful. I feel I'm a good mom. I knew I was never built to be a stay at home mom. My career is important to me. I know that this decision to get my Masters degree sooner rather than after the girls are in school too is the right decision.
But dang it if I don't fell stretched as thin as a pancake! I find myself getting frustrated with my students for things that haven't bothered me in the past. I can deal with students who struggle with content or skills. We can work on those things. How do I fix behaviors they have developed over 10 years time?!
And that, my friends, is the question!
