Haha! That is funny! Very typical "homeschooler" questions and assumptions! Have you seen "The Homeschool Song" on YouTube? So hilarious and SO typical of homeschoolers! :P

I didn't want to login (being lazy!) and so just signed my name in the From bar. :)

I'm glad you enjoyed my post. I try to write things that are going to encourage my brothers and sisters in Christ, and I am glad to hear I reached my goal. :)

This is a funny post, and I think it would be something fun to do on my own blog. Thanks for sharing, it was good getting to know you a little more. Do you yourself knit? I am still learning, but am almost done with my first scarf. It's just the basic stitch...

How have you been? I've been, well, today I've been cold. It's snowing out right now. Yeah, that's IN weather for you! I want spring to come! Oh and if you didn't know, this is the blog I usually blog at - http://dixonhomestead.com/rachel

Love,
Rachel
