My wife...

Over the past year she upgraded her University Degree so she could attend Teacher's College in the fall... of the 3000 or so applicants she was among the 600 or so that were selected.

While going to school full time last year she also:

1) worked slightly more part-time at her job doing PR.
2) taught English riding to kids every Monday and Wednesday night and all day Saturday and Sunday
3) Took care of our one-year-old daughter (only using a baby sitter while she was in class) and our 9-year-old son
4) Obviously I was there to help but I was away on business for about a total of 6 weeks in one or two week stretches

She achieved this by getting up and working through the middle of the night on her papers and press releases...

In the five courses she took she received and "A" in each of them.


Proud doesn't even begin to describe how I feel about her...
