I posted this comment on her blog the day before in response to a related post:
It’s my 2 graduated scholars, both godly and intelligent young men whom I respect and enjoy, that keep me going…wouldn’t trade my relationship with them for anything…and I find it hard to believe it could have been built any other way…And…how would I ever find the time to read aloud for 2 hours a day to my younger crew if they were in school?
Nope…not worth it. Too much I’m not willing to sacrifice for the “potential” academic benefits…which I’m not even sure exist.
This is on my heart b/c I’ve had several conversations about this from younger moms fearing their lack of ability to do high school with their boys.

Love your Scudder quote...so true.
And what a blessing it is that you have been able to invest in your sons! Truly an example and testimony to a quote Reagan loved and had on his Oval Office desk: "It CAN be done." Well, that and God's amazing grace!!
