sacrifice?

There is no doubt that having children changes the decisions you may have otherwise made. I have thought about going on in school and this past week I looked up graduate programs. I found out I would have to apply for entry this upcoming fall and slam in a statistics class first in order to avoid having to repeat undergraduate classes. Now, if i did not have children, I would certainly fight to get it done.

I am just not willing to do that...

I thought about this for awhile and at first I thought, I am sacrificing furthering my education to be a mama. Then I thought...if I did start graduate school what I would be missing with my children is far more valuable. School will always be there, my sons childhoods only happen once and are priceless.

So the question became, am I really sacrificing anything by putting of school? The answer of course is no.
