I think that I am going to use this blog as less of a record of our families homeschool adventure, and more of a journal of my own experiences as a homeschool mom. I have another blog at blogspot, which I have been using to track our various activities. I have given that address to my various family members, and now feel that I am less able to be candid due to their readership.
I have (as so many here do, I am sure) quite a bit of resistance from various family members about our educational choices. The perspective that all of my problems would be solved if I would just put my son in school is not one I want to invite. This means that I just don't share the trials with certain non-supportive people.
It is unfortunate, as the reality is that all paths have their blessings & their difficulties. I need a space where I can write about our challenges, without inviting even more commentary from the peanut gallery about what a wonderful experience that my son is missing out on by not attending public school.

I highly recommend using the Homeschoolblogger link in the top left corner. It will link you to the main page of the community. There you will easily find the last 100 posts posted today. When you find someone that you find is likeminded or interesting, post a comment to introduce yourself and add them to your friends list (in your control panel). Then all you need to do to get to know these peopel better is type /friends at the end of your address in your browser's address bar and click 'go' to read their specific entries each day. It allows you get to know others and develop friendships here. As others learn about you and you introduce yourself, you will find that you will pop up on their friends list and they will be reading your entries each day - getting to know you.
I am going to add you to my friends list and will watch for your posts. Looking forward to making a great friendship with you. :0)
