toot...toot!
Today I will take a break from writing about adoption because today is the day that I officially graduate from my Master's program! Hard to believe that I actually finished it...there were many moments when I wasn't so sure if I could go through with it all. When I enrolled in the program 2 1/2 years ago I wondered what might happen with my school plans since we were trying to have a family. Obviously, nothing has interferred with my schooling and I finished the degree well before we'll have a family. But I have become a big believer in making plans based on where life is currently at and not some future hope or desire. I've heard so many people talk about how unhappy they are at their job or some other situation but yet they don't make changes "just in case" they get pregnant. Well, how do you know if that "just in case" (whatever it is) will happen in a timely fashion? If I had listened to that "just in case" instinct I wouldn't have enrolled in graduate school and wouldn't be where I am today. You just really don't know where life will take you so all you can do is make decisions based on the information available at the time.
Anyway, yeah for me today!
