Jann in TX Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 This is middle dd's Sr year. She is dual-enrolled at the local CC and so far has a 4.0:hurray: She will be taking Spanish 2 and 3 as well as English (comp and literature) at the CC this year. This will also complete her Freshman year in college! At home she will complete Pre-Calc, Physics, Anatomy and one semester of Economics. She also participates in our local high school band--she is not allowed to march (but that is just fine with her!). DD plans to continue at the CC one more year then transfer to a state school her Jr year. This will be the equivalent of over $20,000 in scholarships. She is aiming for a Pre-Med or Pre-Dental program... and that means lots of potential student loans... so at least she will be off to a good start and hopefully will have some scholarships to help with the rest. This dd is also my 'problem child'... her thyroid does not work--and she has anxiety and oppositional issues because of it... she has been a HARD child to parent (and live with too--but she IS improving/maturing and has a GREAT group of friends). Youngest dd is attending our local PS. It has been a good choice for her. We will take this decision one year at a time... who knows--she may be homeschooled one day yet!

ChemMommy Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I'm sure this is somewhat a bittersweet occasion! Congratulations for nearing the end of a long journey with this child! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephanier.1765 Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 :cheers2: Congratulations on a job well done! That is truly impressive. It must be sad though to place that last order. I know I get bit melancholy just placing our last order for each year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SusanAR Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Congratulations! I know how you feel. This is ds's last year too. He is taking classes at the cc and a few at home. DD is a junior at the ps. I have ambiguous feelings. I will miss hs, yet I'm anxious for the next chapter of life.:) My oldest is 30- I've been "mothering" for a long time, and although you never ceases being "Mother", roles do change. It will be interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
