As a young girl, I dreamed of being a Labor and Delivery Nurse. I always enjoyed watching The Baby Stories on The Learning Channel (TLC). I started my young adult life having babies. Although I did not graduate, I still knew that I wanted to go to nursing school. After my first two children became older I obtained my GED and started college courses.
