Family Vacation

Right now I am writing from beautiful Sanibel, Florida. My husband and our two young children (Camryn and Ramone) are on a much needed vacation. This year has definately been a whirlwind for me. I have learned so much thus far in my program, but it has taken up an immense amount of time. There have been so many days where my husband has come home form working a 12 hour day in the hot sun and had to immediately take on all the responsibiliies with our children so that I may finish an assignment for school. I don't think I've ever heard a complaint from him or the kids. My husband has taken so many solo park trips, movie days, and other activities so that I can have a quiet working environment. He has listened to me moan, groan, and panic. He's helped me brainstorm topics and listened with interest to my ideas. He has been my rock. Even now as we are on vacation, my family is so understanding about "Mommy's Homework". I think my seven year old is starting to get worried that homework never ends! The concept of this blog is to honor the people that support me in what I do. If you find it boring, I apologize, but I felt that it might be a creative outlet to express my thanks to them, as well as get aquainted with my classmates. I'm not sure how this blog will evolve, being that blogging is a new concept for me. I plan to add pictures to the blog as soon as we return home. I recently got a notebook and forgot to load the software from my digital camera to the notebook before our trip so that I could post pictures. I'm a little stressed about that because it was a large part of what I had envisioned for the look of the blog, but I will not let it affect my much needed vacation.
