Lorena, the college coed, starts blogging

Day 6 of 1000
Lorena (Mrs. Dad) started back to school this fall.  For a period of 7-8 years when the kids were very young, Lorena took classes at the community college.  She went all the way through English as a Second Language and Freshman Composition, math through the Calculus she needs to get a business degree, along with several business and art classes.  After the kids got into Middle School, motherhood and homeschool were a full time job, so her education has been on hiatus until this fall.  Now that the kids are both sophomores in college, she has started back to college this fall with a class in Financial Accounting.  She plans to increase her load by one class each semester until she gets up to four classes.  That should allow her to finish her Associate of Science degree about the same time our kids get their bachelors degrees.

That all fits into our 1000 day plan!  I think it is great she is going back.  She has a super professor this semester, works hard on her homework every day, and plans to blog about her experience here on this blog.  She will split her writing about 50/50 between Spanish and English.  We are very excited to hear what she has to say.  Ten years as a homeschool mother has prepared her well to re-enter college.  She is not sure yet what Bachelors Degree she wants to get nor where she will go when she finishes community college, but it will be fun to have her explain it all to us.
