As of right now, I'm not in the occupation that I wanted to be when I was little. Growing up, I wanted to work as a Social Worker with Foster Children. My parents did foster care, so I seen what the children go through when in the system. Today, I'm working in a group home with mentally challenged adults. This type of work I find very rewarding but I still plan to go to school to become a Social Worker!

No I didnt but that's ok. I don't mind because I became a mother very young and I love my kids too much to look back at those regrets. I wanted to be a laywer when I grew up.
