College Graduate

On my son’s last day of undergrad classes I was ready to go through 12 years of workbooks, papers, notebooks, art, books and all the other things I had saved. We were so excited that day, undergrad was done ! But those boxes in the basement full of our homeschool years. Those boxes had been on my mind. So… we dragged them upstairs and I planned to get through them over the next few days. I wanted to touch everything, not just chuck it all into the recycle without pawing through it first. I wanted to remember each thing, to be surprised by the resources I had forgotten about. I want to cull it down to a few items that I would keep forever. I made piles. KEEP Maybe keep Show Ian Show gramma (Ian and my mom met for their beloved “Gramma School” once a week from age 5 until he graduated high school) Take a picture Giveaway Trash
