As the year comes to a close, I start thinking about what has happened with our lives over the last 12 months. This year has been a challenge to say the least. I got promoted from a full time stay-at-home Mum, to a full time nursing student AND Mum. I am posting while I have a spare 10 minutes because I have many people I want to thank for pulling me through this year.
Firstly, you guys, my friends of Facebook for putting up with my uni-related status updates, for following my progress throughout the year and for all the congratulations for my marks. You don’t know how much it means to have such a strong support network behind me!
My fellow nursing students, it has been a pleasure sharing this first year of madness with you, knowing that the stress I feel is a mutual feeling among us all. I have enjoyed getting to know you and can now call you my friends. Here is to our final year of these crazy times! X
My two closest friends, Jess & Lisa, who have tolerated my lack of effort in the friendship department, going months without seeing me, still listening to me whinge and reminding me that I CAN do this. The two very greatest friends a girl could ever wish for, many many thanks to you both x
My family who never hesitate to remind me of what I have achieved and tell me how proud they are. My mum for watching the boys for me whenever she could, my auntie for ALWAYS telling me she is proud and our Mimi, for always being a great support. My amazing mother-in-law (to be soon I’m sure), Deb, who has never turned the babysitting job down and provided us with many delicious meals when Matt and I have both finished late. I wouldn’t have been able to afford to go to uni without you watching our boys and saving us from the childcare bills.
Finally, Matt and my two wonderful boys, for being my driving force to succeed; for brightening my days when they have felt like hopeless ones; for reminding me EVERY SINGLE DAY of why it is I am putting myself through this crazy world of stress. It has always been for you. I will always strive to give you both the very best life I can possibly give.
Love to you all xx
