Packed up eight years of homeschooling for my graduate today

[reet3]

Today, I spent a while pulling together my usual annual records and  "portfolios" for my kids.  This year was different.  The graduation ceremony is done, the transcript is at the university.  I will still have two more at home, so I decided to make a little extra room for the upcoming 5 more years.  I removed from my desk file, all of the graduate's years of homeschooling portfolios, from 5th to 12th grade and put them into ONE---LITTLE---BOX.   The finality hit me. And I cried.  She worked hard.  I worked hard and made lots of mistakes.  But I would not change the path chosen.   It was such a blessing and an honor to walk this journey with her.  Now I will homeschool with one less child around. Big scary changes ahead, but I will figure it out just like I figured out how to homeshool.  So glad I've had this forum and web-site for support and guidance.  Thank you all.

I finally dropped the Final transcript in the mail for my graduate. I'd been procrastinating. It did feel like the end of an era.
