Teenaged mother. She did so much better than me!

You can go back to school too, you know.

I may do that. Not sure, though. I'm busy working and trying to pay for everything still. She gets scholarships because she's smart but I'm still holding down the fort at home for now.

Congratulations! She's lucky to have such a determined, loving mother.

Thank you. I honestly appreciate that.

See what your company offers in tuition reimbursement. Classes at your local community college will be cheaper than your local public university too. My sister and I were the first in our family to ever go to college, but my mother got her associates degree in accounting when she was in her 40's. If your company doesn't, maybe it's time to dust off that resume and start applying to companies that do. It's a nice bennie. My nephew worked for Target out of high school and they paid for his college classes.

Good for her! You not so much.

I'm aware. I just feel a huge weight off my shoulders right now and a lot of pride for her.

As you should.

No. He was much older than me and I'm pretty sure he was afraid of being prosecuted for statutory rape. He was 26 when I got pregnant at the age of 15.

Congratulations sweetie! ❤

You did great! Being a single mother is hard and I'm sure you had more than your share of struggles. You have every right to be proud!

That's awesome both for you girls and momma!
