Meet my best friend. She graduated with her MASTERS and had a long, hard road in doing so.

But! she defeated the odds and DID IT! I couldn't be more proud of her!
Come to think of it, by her and I continuing our schooling, it was one of the ways how we became such good friends. We swapped babysitting our two kiddos so we could attend our classes (which made them instantly become best friends), and because we had to see each other every time we dropped off our kids, we talked a lot, clicked, and our story unfolded.
