I dumped out my last textbook out of my backpack so I could take my backpack to the library and Kamri grabbed the highlighter and started turning the pages of the book, it looked so funny to me I had to take some pictures. I guess since I'm done now it's her turn ;)
When we were in Cedar we found a little mound of snow from the snowplows by my parents house. Hayes loved it but I think my sister Heather and I had just as much fun laughing at ourselves! 
I graduated in Economics. Going to the commencement ceremony really made me think a lot about why i finished. First, let's be honest, without my mom pushing me and without Bracken's support I never would have finished. Plus the huge help Mother-in-law & Sister-in-laws were in always babysitting when I had class or needed to study while Bracken was working. I feel like not only did I learn a lot about economics but I also learned a lot about myself while I finished school. I hate asking for/receiving help from others but with two kids and trying to go to school it's impossible to not get help from others. I had to swallow my pride and just realize how blessed I am that I have family and friends that offered so willingly to babysit. I learned that although I am really bad at focusing on one thing until it's finished, it is possible. I also learned how to better manage my time, although I still don't do as well as I should.
The other thing that was funny about graduation was people asking what I was going to do with my degree. Since I'm not working I'm not really going to be "using" it on a day to day basis. And although talking about the law of demand or marginal diminishing returns MIGHT put Hayes & Kamri to sleep for their naps, I kinda doubt it. Hopefully I'll remember enough from my classes I'll be able to help them with their math homework (at least in first grade..right?) and my online classes taught me that I don't need to be in class t0 learn but I can just read or research what I'm interested in. All the writing I had to do in college has really helped me write better but I still need some work on conveying my feelings in my writing. Economic papers are just not emotional! Anyway, the point of this post I guess is Yahoo! I'm done!
I was telling Hayes to jump on the bed to make Kamri laugh (yeah bad mom...telling your child to jump on the bed) I love this picture...chubby thighs, a tutu, and a huge smile.
