After 5 years of hard slog I have finally graduated with an MBA. I felt very proud in my gown and mortarboard, especially as my parents, husband and Sophie were there to see me. Sophie seemed to enjoy the sense of occasion and was very well behaved during the ceremony, although rumour has it a bag of corn snacks did help to keep her quiet.

It was definitely hard work doing an MBA whilst working and being pregnant at the same time… but I survived. Sometimes it felt like I rarely saw Andy as I was permanently studying. The poor thing spent more time with his X box that he did with me (trying to amuse himself whilst I had my nose in a book). Needless to say I’m looking forward to having some spare time again. Is that possible with a 1 year old?!

Next stop PHD??????
