It’s hard to believe that school is starting up in just a few days! While many fellow “mom bloggers” are busy preparing for their children to go back to school, it’s interesting finding myself in a different boat… preparing for myself to go back to school.
Before baby was born the prospect sounded so easy. Most of my classes will be online, Carter will watch the baby for those few classes I have on campus. I’ll be organized and on top of things. I knew it would be different, but knew it would be just fine. Nothing that I can’t handle.
I’m glad I had that faith then, because now the reality of school with a baby is hitting me. Thank goodness Peter is starting to sleep for longer stretches. But still, with nighttime feedings and a baby that is starting to be more and more alert (and distracting), I’m starting to wonder how I’ll get it all done!
But here’s what I do know.
God wants me to be here at this time. He sent Peter to us when he was meant to come, knowing I wouldn’t be graduated yet. God wants me to graduate, at least that’s what he’s saying so far.
Regardless of how steep or rocky the path might be, for now I know we’re on the right one. Despite the occasional feeling that I’m about to encounter the impossible, I have faith that it will work out. Whatever path our little family is supposed to take, I know that we’ll figure it out.
