Breathe....just breathe

Andy signed up for next semester's courses today.

My head is still spinning.

Andy's days till be 8am-3:15pm classes STRAIGHT then 4pm-10:30pm work. 10:30-1 or 2am homework. Every day.

He's a full-time student this semester, but next semester is 5 additional credits.

Medical courses should be given their own credit system, they are extremely complex, incredible amount of memorization and just to give you an idea, just ONE of Andy's classes this semester prefers it's students to dedicate 14 hours of study weekly to that ONE class.

You do the math.

Now, you may ask what our plan of attack is, being a family of 4, working part time (Andy is actuallyworking full time right now) jobs and maintaining this amazing school schedule?!

Yes, well, here is our grand plan:

Pray.

We will pray for strength, encouragement, faith, patience, a will to go on and finish strong and above all, we will pray for the Lord's will come what may.

Oh my gosh, that's intense! So sounds like he will be studying on breaks during work too, eh?? I remember when I took college microbiology I spent 45 hours on just the final project. It just about killed me! I lost track of how many all-nighters I did by year 2 of school and it took a toll on my health!(mono)I will pray that God gives Andy super-human health and strength (for you too as you handle mommy duties)You guys can do it!!
