doing it all?

I have just receive an acceptance letter to CEGEP. Even though, I thought i had renounced to the idea of going back to school in order to b a full time stay at home wife and mom, I find myself contemplating a return to the school benches. I feel so confused. Oli urges me to go back saying that I love school so much that it would be a shame that I didnt take this oppurtunity. He alos says that having a degree could be usefull if ever something happened to him *knocks on wood*. Plus he says it could be great for when all our kids will be off to school and thats its only part time, so he would get time with his son.

Im just worried i'll have to much to do. Too much housework, too much schoolwork, too much juggling that i won't have time to smell the coffee. I just dont want to be that working mom that forgets that her kids are waiting impatiently at home.

I think that this is one of the greatest dilema as a mom. Is it better to stay home and enjoy the small things knowing that the futur could be less stable, or ignoring the small details to look at the big picture?
