I've been working hard on curriculum for our next "school year". We will be finished with what we are doing now and ready for the next phase in August, I predict, so I really need to get this finished and get things ordered. It is stressing me out as I thought I had found the perfect (or as perfect as it gets) curriculum last year and it has now

I do not have any idea how you make decisions like that. You meaning me and the rest of the world. Not YOU you. I have agonized over the decision of school or not all year long. I still am not sure I'm doing the right thing. But when Brad stated in writing that he would support homeschooling until high school age, I just let it go and plan to homeschool until it becomes untenable. Or someone is literally begging to go to school for some reason.

I know dance has been a very difficult decision for you. All I can compare it to is gymnastics for Zoe. The other girls have begged to do gymnastics numerous times and I have always said to them that if they do that, it has to be all they do just as it is for Zoe. That usually kills it for them. And maybe it is time for Annie to face the reality that Aaron is going to get the scholarship and she is not and that is how he gets to do it. Her path lies elsewhere. Doesn't mean she can't dance...money is a reality. It is either there or it isn't. I don't know, this probably doesn't make any sense. But I see the dilemma, believe me.

I feel like our activities are on a knife's edge. We can't REALLY afford all of them. But while the money is there, I'm pushing it through. When the money isn't there, we will face the trauma of pulling out, I guess. Dang, I dread that.
