I know how much it means to have parental support. You can get along with just spousal support, but having parents support you is just so nice.
My mom wasn't big on the idea of homeschooling when I first got started. But anytime someone would bring it up around her, I would always say "I'm so lucky to have the support of my family." That would usually bring accolades for her (even though I really meant my husband (-;). She was made to look good for supporting us and now she does it in earnest. LOL!
I'm a tad manipulative, eh?

Well, considering that moms corner the market on manipulation, you and I no doubt learned from the masters. :) For example, I'm 34 years old and mine is great at making me feel guilty for not visiting enough, even though I see her about once a month, and before I know it, I'm packed and in the car with the kids. She's a pro, believe me. I can't wait to practice on my own kids when they get old enough to fall victim to it. Especially since my husband is too often onto me these days, LOL!
