<p>I guess I gave off the vibe that we were against splitting them up. We’re absolutely not. We’ve made it very clear to them that we want them to choose the schools that they like best, regardless of what the other is doing–and if they happen to end up at the same school, great, and if not, that’s great too. I’ll admit that the strictly logistics/numbers side of me is hoping that they choose the same school or schools near each other. We’re more worried about the logistical side of things (attending parents day, sports games, getting to/from school, etc–and the cost associated with all of the travel) than the “they’re attending different schools” aspect.</p>
<p>I’m really just hoping that we’re not completely insane to be looking at different schools for them. But it sounds like it’s pretty common, so we’ll probably be good. (We’re very new to the boarding school gig, if you can’t tell.)</p>
