We have started week 3 of the Spring semester.  I can’t believe this is my last official full semester.  I have two more classes to take that I will complete in the Fall.  With those two classes, in order to make a full time semester I will find two other classes to take.  They won’t be part of my Associates in Accounting but I will take business related classes.

I still have this semester to finish and so far I have done really well.  I am hoping to finish with a 4.0 GPA.  I currently have a 4.0 but anything can happen this semester.  LOL!

I just can’t believe how fast the past 2 years have gone.  Tony and I will have completed 5 semesters of college, maintained our household, our jobs (I now work a part time job and have been since September of last year), and everything else that goes along with our life.

The only thing I feel that has fallen by the wayside is our relationship.  I mean we knew what we were getting in to but I feel we have NO TIME to spend together.  It seems like when we do have any time (like over the break in between Fall and Spring) we didn’t spend any of it alone.  We didn’t go on a date or nothing.  Sometimes I wonder if he wants to spend time alone with me.

When we first started dating, we were only together for about 9 months before we started to have kids.  WOW, that sounds so quick now that I actually say it “out loud.”  We didn’t try very long before I got pregnant.  From that point on I was almost constantly pregnant or healing from a pregnancy for the following 3 years.  Shortly after we had our little boy (2 years ago) we decided to go back to college.  That now brings us to the present.  I just wonder if we really spent any “alone” time before diving in to “parenthood” together.  I was already a parent and entered our relationship with a 9 year old.

I know we have the rest of our lives to spend together.  And I know that what we are doing right now can and will only better the rest of our lives together.  We want and deserve so much more for our family.  I will give it more time before I start jumping to any conclusions.  Before I start worrying we will not be able to make it through life together.  We only have this last semester to go.  Well I guess Tony will continue at a university and I do plan on continuing my education but maybe it won’t be as intense.

Only time will tell, right?
