Reflection: December 9, 2011. DAY 3

Today, I finally brought my flour baby to school. I was absent on Wednesday, so I didn't get any of the worksheets. I think I'm finally caught up with everyone else. My baby is premature. Today, we found out our level of education. Turns out, all I have is a high school diploma. I only make $626 a week. That's not nearly as much as I'd like for my salary to be. The total cost for my baby is $231, 170 until she's 18 years old. I only make $30, 048 a year. The total cost of food alone is $1,120. I don't make enough money in order to support my child. With only a high school diploma, I cannot buy everything that I want and need for my child.
