But this time he wants to go (well, sort of, in a teenage kind of way) and I am willing to let him go.
He has started HS and both him and us are seeing that the next three years are going to be a HUGE challenge logistically and time wise as well. We live in a small town, he gets up at 5:30 every day to be at school at 7:35. Once a week he is up at 5:00 to have a violin lesson at 6:00 (crazy!!!).
I know how you feel, TIRED.
We get up at 5:00am almost every weekday of the year either to beat the bulk of morning rush hour traffic en route to my kid�s schools or to get to the community swim team practice in the summer. The bonus is that we get to wake up at 4:30am during the dead of winter so dd15 can join her school swim team (in another state) by 6:00am.
With the $27,000 average in financial aid from Exeter for middle-income families, plus the cost savings of not having to feed a teenage boy or drive him to school an hour away, we could actually be ahead financially if ds went!
Dd could be driving herself soon. When is the deadline for application?
