He used the phrase, "sever ties."

Or they do. :-) I think they want to know us for the reasons you state - our kids could go to their school if they choose one day. Win-win.

I have friends who have used the same curriculum every year for their six kids, and it works for them, but even they have realized that sometimes you can't do everything in a year, and that's okay. I've changed horses so many times in the middle of this stream that sometimes we look like we're dancing, but each change brings us closer to getting where we really want to go.

Something I do is 'ask' for craft kits for Christmas & the kids birthdays & then on those days you're ready to jump out of a window, I bust one out. It helps for a little while. I find large boxes (tv boxes etc) will keep them occupied for hours (and mine are 6 & 8). Playdates, playdates, playdates!!!
