So last year about this time we sat through high school open houses so my daughter could figure out which high school would help her the most. Which one would help her get ahead in her goals for her future. She was very brave and ended up going to a school that had the best educational program yet none of her friends would be attending. This year, it is my son's turn. Tonight we toured a high school he felt would best fit the needs for HIS future. We encourage our children to think of what they want to do and then pursue that goal. My son wants to be an architect. He has found a school, not our home school, that will help him towards that degree, and not just help him towards that but will offer many different opportunities to earn college credits and network with people already in the industry. Like my daughter, because it is not our home high school, it would mean walking away from "comfort" of being at the same school as all of your friends.
I am SO proud of both of them! It is hard to believe they are growing up so fast. Hard to believe they are so mature that they are looking forward into a future already. It seems just the other day they were little, and now they are growing up so fast right before my eyes...
