Being a mother of two and studying for a degree in nursing brings many stresses and strains like not having enough hours in the day, the inability to wind down at night, and the non-existent social life, but it is also accompanied with lots of happy times.
My children are very proud of me and often tell their teachers that I am at university. They are more motivated when carrying out their homework as they see me doing mine. The time you get off from university is used more wisely as you look forward to that time out with your family. You become more organised and prioritise your workload more effectively when you have children. You are more engaged in the curriculum as you want to learn, you want to achieve, you want to reach that end goal. Mine is almost here and I must say, I will miss my time at university and I would do it all over again if I could.
