Nothing was going to stop this woman from receiving her college diploma, not even active labor.

Anshonarial Greenhouse, the 31-year-old pregnant student from Marksville, Louisiana, who had begun having contractions at 25 weeks and received medicine to stop her early contractions walked across the stage during Louisiana State University of Alexandria’s fall commencement ceremony on Dec. 13, as reported by The LaFayette Daily Advertiser.

With a little help from the school’s baseball coach, Greenhouse received her bachelor’s in business administration, with a concentration in accounting. What made the ceremony even more of a can’t-miss-moment was the fact that her mother, Elaine Young, was also graduating that day in accounting. The new mother said;

“I knew it was a possibility I couldn’t walk (at graduation), but I really pushed to be able to go…in accounting, there are only like 10 students. I wanted to be there with them.”

If this doesn’t make you want to achieve your goals this year, I don’t know what will.
