I now have two children done with homeschool. This is bittersweet. They are pretty much done with me as mom; they are ready for me in a new role that is less active but more behind-the scenes as they begin to navigate new waters of work and future. At least they are still under my roof. I still have them.
I just set books aside for Becca's last year. My homeschool shelves have thinned by a lot.
I've chosen to put Mike in an online charter school. Strangers will now choose his books for him. My role for his schooling is changing.
I am not sure that I am equipped to let these children go.
