Homeschool
 
Being a homeschool Mom, I realize the importance of a like minded friend that understands what it is I am trying to do in this thing we call "homeschool."  She understands because she too is a homeschool Mom.  I don't know what I would do without this friend, she is that important to me.  She encourages me, she cheers me on, and she is there to give me a hug when I need it.

She wrote me an email today that I want to share with you.  Usually, I'm the one that writes this kind of stuff for you!  Inspiration comes in many forms, and today my inspiration came in the form of an email.  I hope this letter inspires you the way that it did for me.   TM : )

Hi Tracy,

It was so nice to chat with you, today!  And you really are very kind about S.  Truthfully, both our sons are totally out-of-the-box and brilliant.  They both have their unique issues and personalities that color it all, as well.  : )

I have often told S that L and he are great foils to each other.  While they are both similar in their intelligence, they are very different in personality.  L has that fire and think-on-his-feet strength and stage presence times a thousand, and S is the methodical, steady-as-he-goes, quiet logical type.  But they both have the potential to reach for things in life that are beyond many people's reaches.

Still, it's just not easy for them because our society doesn't embrace our out-of-the-box kids.  Moms like us have to beat our own paths out for them and with them.  So we should both pat ourselves on the back for all the work we have done to enable our kids to do what they do.  Not easy, no, and not over by a long shot... but I think we are both doing the best we can!  : )

Just my two cents (plus inflation)...
