We are very fortunate that DH is PG himself and has a very strong work ethic. He works from a home office and allows me to be the Learning Coach/Teacher for our DD. The budget is tight, and we were not prepared to have to pay tuition for an elementary education for a 4 year old and a 20 year old in college at the same time.

Even though DH is totally aware of DD's needs, I find myself sharing some of the posts from this board to him. I want him to feel good about our decision to homeschool our DD, and I constantly tell him how thankful I am that I am not having to stress over advocating for DD.

It is an exciting time to be homeschooling. I think with the amount of gifted kids joining the homeschool ranks, we are changing many people's perceptions of what homeschooling is.
