Valentine's Day has gotten me thinking... actually quite deeply about some truths in my own life.  

In the past month I have had three people contact me about homeschooling.  They want to know how to get started, all about the support groups and the academics, and how I manage to have time to myself.

Inevitably they also ask me if my kids miss out on "socializing" and things like class parties.   

I answer as sweetly as I can; it seems like a lifetime ago that I had those EXACT SAME CONCERNS.
