The last two weeks have gotten me very overwhelmed and frustrated. Three weeks ago my 9 year old daughter decided she wanted to come and live with me after not being with me since she was almost 2. My 6 year old daughter and her father moved back down to my area after being almost 2 hours away for the last two years. I have been trying to transition myself into having my eldest daughter around full time. I know have 3 kids to get ready for school in the morning. One to pick up at 11 (after AM Kindergarten is done), one that rides the bus home and gets here at 12:30PM, and another one that walks home from school at 3PM. I am having to rearrange all my study time to help with my daughter's home work. Try to get my almost two year old son to take a nap in the afternoon after I pick up Raychel and before Serenity gets home. I totally spaced off the seminar last week for College Comp. II and I was really upset with myself for that. I still have not completed or turned in option 2 because I cannot find the time to get it done. I am starting to get frustrated with my Anatomy and Physiology class because i don't understand the assignments. I have reached out to the resource center and asked if they could find someone to help tutor me.
Wow now that is a lot to swallow the last couple of weeks. I am not completely positive about what I would like to do my final project paper on for College Comp. II but I am leaning towards something that has to do with affects on a fetus. I was thinking maybe something to do with methanphetamines or heroin use and it's effects on the unborn fetus. Could someone please give me a little bit of feed back or try to help me in the right direction. Thank you for taking the time to read my little whinning and complaining before I got right down to the point.

a little about me and my family
This is my 4th term at Kaplan University. I must say that I have been doing rather well. There were a few struggles here and there like the day my son was admitted to the hopsital. Our short check up on his asthma turned in to three days at the hospital. I got a little behind in my studies but caught up rather quickly. I have a very supportive family. My children allow me to read the books I am studying to them at night and my boyfriend does a lot to keep the children busy when I need to study or am working on something for class. My 9 year old daughter finds it interesting to just pick up my anatomy and physiology book and sit back and read it. I am greatful that she is able to read those kind of books without thinking that there is something wrong with the pictures of naked people in them as many young children would naturally do. She has already learned a lot just by reading out of it 20 minutes a day.
As a family we enjoy anything that involves the outdoors. We love to ride bikes, camp, hike, go on small nature walks, fish, and just play. I have 4 children and my boyfriend has 1 so our home is always full of some kind of activity. I love my life and my family. I just recently celebrated seven years in recovery. Recovery is just as much a part of my daily life as my children are because without recovery I wouldn't have my children and my children would not have a mother.
