I spoke with two Kindergarten teachers yesterday at my sons' school, who tell 
me that my 4.5-year-old isn't ready for Kindergarten.  After talking it over 
with my schoolteacher mother, whom I have every reason to trust, I've 
concluded that they're right.  He is so excited about going to school next 
year, and I haven't yet told him that he won't be going to school with my 
second son, who will be in third grade.
I'm already preparing to homeschool my oldest son next year, who will be in 
fifth grade, and I figure I can just add the younger one into the mix.  What 
I'm wondering, though, is whether or not to also send him to a private 
preschool for two or three afternoons a week.  If I knew for sure that I'd be 
homeschooling him the following year, I might not bother, but we're taking 
this thing one year at a time.  I had planned on starting with homeschooling 
just one, and adding another each year or as they reached fifth grade, so 
this is throwing me for a loop.
