I am a young wife and mother just starting my family. My family has always been important to me, and I am very happy to have the chance to raise my own. Since I was a child I have wanted nothing else than to be a full-time mother.

After high school I took a break and worked three jobs at a time in stead of going onto college. I like to work and believe hard work builds character. I met the man of my dreams and got married. I now have an amazing husband and a beautiful baby girl.

I am headed back to school. I've elected to take online courses so that I can continue to be a full-time mommy. I will be studying Fashion/Retail Management and with my degree hope to build my own business allowing me to be self sufficient and independent.

Almost every one I knew told me if I started a family before I went to college, I'd never go. I disagreed, followed my heart, and proved them wrong. They have also told me I'd never finish my degree, but I intend to prove them wrong there too; I intend to finish as quickly as possible.

I follow my heart and do what I feel to be right. I don't let life's circumstances hold me back. I am a happy full-time mom making ends meet quite comfortably. I've been told I can't, but I always do. I'm strong-willed, but haven't always been that way.

In my time I have allowed myself to be used, abused, and hurt in some of the worst ways possible. I have secluded myself, belittled myself, and allowed others to do the same. Life is short and can be very mean, my advice to any one is to not ever do this. Be strong willed, but not narrow minded. Life is pain enough don't add to it by hurting yourself or allowing others to hurt you either. Follow your dreams and let nothing hold you back.

Education > Adult Education Tips for participating in online classes

2 of 24

I currently started taking online classes working toward my degree in Fashion and Retail Marketing. At first I really wasn't sure online classes were for me, but I have a daughter and feel a very strong need to continue being a full-time mommy to her. Then again, I also want to teach her the value of her education and couldn't do that very well if I didn't value my own. The online environment has given me the freedom to stay with my baby and still continue my education. Though I have never been enrolled in my own ground college courses I have attended several for and with my husband. There ...
