Congrats! The advantage of going BACK to school as an adult (vs. straight out of High School) is that you have the maturity to really LEARN. Not only for the 'grade' but because you know it is a privelege to be able to be there and have more perspective with regards to understanding what will need to be applied in the real world.

I took a 'high school' mentality into college. I still did well, got good grades etc. but I don't have as good of an education as was possible for me to attain if I'd been more mature. I have a degree from a highly respected program but in my heart, I know I'm not as well educated as my resume' would lead one to believe- and it was all my fault.

YOU won't be making that mistake even if it is harder to go to school with kids and real-world responsibilities.
