No, no flip-flopping on homeschooling. If anything, I'm more committed than ever to do it. At first I decided to start hs next year, but then I thought, why wait? So then I figured I'd take them out at spring break. I got all fired up and started working on IHIPs and ordering curriculum materials, but it just didn't feel like the right thing to do. Now the plan is to wait until next school year.
I think it will work out better for the kids this way. There's no "clear and present danger" for them at school and this way they get to say goodbye to friends and teachers that they care about. The problem is that I don't want to tell them until the end of the school year, but I'm just DYING to tell them. I'm terrible at keeping happy secrets.
