 I'm also homeschooling an "only" child. Well, not really , my oldest is 28 with children older than her sister. I'm 48 myself and had not encountered any "baby boomer" moms with young homeschoolers. sherry, have you thought of developing a new interest, something perhaps you always wanted to learn but never had the time before. After years as an RN,and suffering from severe burn out, I dropped out of the work force, re-evaliated my life and proceeded to start over. during this recouping phase, found myself unexpectedly, "expecting" and thus begun this wonderful and creative phase of my life. I found that I had interests and talents I never knew I had, took up oil painting with a passion. Now, at age five, daughter is developing her own creative pursuits right along side Mom. sherry, I would say take some "reflective" time. I know deep down there's a yearning to do something that perhaps you always felt you couldn't or circumstances wouldn't let you. Renée
