It was registration time for second semester.  My daughter was now registering for her second semester at college, and I was left in the lobby with my checkbook.  As, she emerged with her schedule, I just sat nervously, wondering how much this was gonna cost us.  Although, the HOPE scholarship pays for a good bit of her classes, the fees, books, and, some electives were not covered by the scholarship.  We departed the university and headed home.  We were searching for books online at Amazon, and rental sites.  Where the snag comes in, she has two classes with homework on a mathlab, and her cell biology and genetics class required a code that cost 100.00 each.  Are you kidding me???  We overnight these, and all that arrived was a piece of cardboard with a 12 to 15 digit access code.  Shipping and handling for a piece of cardboard, in a world of electronic technology, I pay shipping for a number?  We are now at the point of selecting her four year college.  She will have completed to years of undergraduate work while simultaneously finishing her last two years of high school.  My daughter asks me, "what should I do with my life? " I can only say, do what makes you happy, what brings her joy.  She loves the human anatomy, she can tell you the strangest facts about the body.  She has a library of human anatomy books, right beside the Teen Vogue and Seventeen Magazines.  She struggles with math, but loves science. I remind myself, she is just sixteen, and not eighteen, and she will change her mind five or six more times.   How do we survive in a single income family and next fall we will have two in college, and the following fall three in college?
