My literacy moment

My literacy moment came to me when I was thirty one years old.  I was a wife and a mother of three beautiful children.  My life at home was great.  I was happy and felt needed.  Unfortunately, in the career world I did not have the same feelings.  I felt stuck and unable to contribute to the household income and in a job with no room for growth.  At that point I realized I needed a career that would suit my lifestyle.  I loved being home with my family however, I wanted to be able to work part time and still be able to contribute to house hold income.  That's when I decided to fulfill my lifetime dream of becoming a nurse.  I applied to the LPN program and was accepted! I completed the program and graduated in June 2008.
