National College of Midwifery, anyone else?

I enrolled in this program 4 years ago and have about a semester left to go, but I am finding it very difficult to complete the last module with an 18 month old constantly running around. I feel like I will never finish and I'm starting to get very down about it. The art project, book reports and professional writing skills book are thorns in my side right now, and I feel that if I have time for art, I want to make my daughter a dress, or knit her a hat. I would love to talk to someone else who's completed this program, or who is in it right now and compare notes. Maybe I'm just making things bigger than they need to be...

come on and hang in there you are too close to quit now-- I think being only a semester away is not something to walk away from-- perhaps there is a way to share at the same time when doing the art project-- have your baby finger paint or glue and maybe use some materials you are using-- just take it one day and one project at a time--
take care

Knit a baby hat and call it an art project. I was down to my last trimester of "busy work" like you and after a birth I plopped their placenta down on some fancy art paper, let it dry, bought a frame and called it my art project It's hanging in the NCM offices I hear

OMG, that is a fabulous art project. I don't know what I was thinking, wanting to make a quilt!!!
Thank you both for the boost.
