For many years,I had a recurring(重复出现的)dream in which I was still a little girl,with books carried in my arm,ready to go to school.Deep inside,I knew where the dream came from.It was about some unfinished business in my life.As a kid,I loved everything about school.Most of all,I longed to receive my diploma(毕业证书).But at 15,I had to drop out because my parents couldnt afford tuition.My hope of getting a diploma was gone.Pretty soon,I married and had three children whom I wanted to be educated.But Linda,our youngest child,had juvenile arthritis(幼年型关节炎)in her hands,which made it impossible for her in a normal classroom.But I did not want her to live with regrets as I did.It was then that I saw an ad in the newspaper for evening courses.So I signed her up for the night school。
