Ive been missing our kids

Ok first I should say, he said he doesn’t want anymore kids until we’re both done with our degrees. And I agree with him and I’m not mad about it because he’s right, ever since we went back to school, our schedule and our time with the kids has been off.

And I feel so sorry for my mom having to take on and pick up the kids from school more since we’re both working and going to school and I’ve been spending more time in the library until late then I sleep in while my mom watches our younger 2.

And that’s why I agree that we should wait to have more kids. And I know it’s really hard on them not getting to see us as much so that’s why I always recommend get your education first before you have a bunch of kids. Nothing wrong with having your kids young but eventually when you have to go back to school these are the problems you will run into.

But I am so grateful and thankful to have my mom help out a lot. She said she doesn’t mind because she loves getting to spend time with the kids. I mean ever since my dad died, she’s been kind of depressed and lonely. So I am so glad she doesn’t mind raising them part-time for us. But it’s gonna be worth it in the end.

In a year in a half he WILL have his masters and hopefully next year I have my bachelors (I know, so embarrassing. Taken me 9 years to finish a 4 year program) but yall should not judge me because I’ve worked hard. You just have to keep at it, take 2 classes at a time and you’ll get there!

Don't be be embarrassed, we all have lives that slow us down from achieving our goals. The main thing is....YOU NEVER GAVE UP and that what matters
@HumanEarth that’s what I keep telling myself. I didn’t give up on it. But still, how do you not feel a little embarrassed because it’s just little high school kids on campus. I mean they’re not in high school but like they just look like it 🤣

And even though I still blend in with them and I still look young. It’s just that if I was to make friends, should I lie about my age or should I just be prideful like yeah I’m about to be 26 🤣🤣
@HumanEarth and these young kids I don’t know what happened. I’m literally eight years older than these 18-year-olds and it’s like there’s a generation gap between us.

Whenever I was 18, the boys who graduated with me, did not look scrawny and tiny like these 18 year olds now so like even if I wanted to cheat, I can’t cheat cause I don’t wanna be with a little kid.

There is literally nobody who looks grown (24 and up) on my campus 😭😭 so again even if I wanted to cheat, I can’t cheat

That's called life when caught between a generation gap. It sucks a lot. We get older, but new models keep coming out
