Homeschooling will change for us this fall

Our oldest daughter will be graduating from homeschooling in the next couple weeks.  She has been taking classes at the local junior colleges and will start full time this fall.  She is excited to start.  And I think she is well prepared.  She has been doing just fine in the classes she's taken so far.

It will be a bit weird for me.  Ever since she "started" kindergarten we have been homeschooling her.  The current plan is she'll live at home for the next year or two.  She isn't gone yet, but she is taking her first steps to moving on with her life.  I'm already missing her.

But the bigger change this fall is we'll start homeschooling our son. 

Our long time readers know that Baby Bop joined our home over four years ago as a foster care placement.  It was supposed to be short term.  For over a year it was supposed to be short term.  Then two years ago we were able to adopt him.  Now this fall we'll be officially homeschooling him.

It is a bit weird to be starting over, after all this time. 

He seems ready.  Recently he has started asking for his school work.  He is excited to start.  He likes to write his name. 

I'm looking forward to the next chapter in our homeschooling adventure.
