I have decided to homeschool Grace..For a while I was "straddling the fence" about it.. and now after thinking about it.. doing research.. I made up my mind about it.. and Grace seems to be happy about it.. Actually this morning.. she was almost in tears.. (which is a first) Anyways.. I call the DNPE..(department of non-public education) and they told me the only thing I have to do is to go to the office and ask for an un-enrollment form.. then shes outta there for good.. and they shouldn't even ask me a reason for doing so.. Then right before she turns 7 I have to register our HS with the DNPE office.. but we will be good to go from then on.. I will still be able to start HSing her now.. and through 1st grade..

I'm glad this is working out for you. I had seen your post on the homeschooling board about this. (I lurk there occasionally.) Is James supporting you in this? I want to homeschool as well, but Matt is against it. I am hoping that by the time we have a baby and it's time to start school, I can change his mind. I can't homeschool my two legally because of shared custody and their father won't agree or else the wouldn't be in school regardless of Matt's stance.

James was not for homeschooling at first.. and I just told him how I felt.. I talked to Grace before making my final decision on it.. and told him that I wanted to do this.. and Grace was excited about it too.. and I just went for it.. I was going to just wait til the friday before Graces birthday and let that be her last day.. but I just pulled her out today.. so tomorrow will be our first day of homeschool.. It is not as hard as you might think.. we did a few days to start.. like over the weekend and on days she felt like doing a little extra after school.. I think James will fully be on board once he can see how well Grace is doing.. and how happy she is.. I am happy that I made the choice to do this.. and If you ever want to talk about HSing I'm here to talk..

I am so so excited for you !

HSing is something I am toying with but thankfully I have some time before I have to decide.
