There has been some question...

There has been some question about the welfare of my son because he wrote "HELP ME!" in the driveway. He is fine. He wrote it as a joke.
Sometimes you have to have a sense of humor when evaluating my life. I wipe butts for a living and my husband supports our family killing bugs. We don't live our life being completely serious. We don't see the point. Yesterday Anthony wrote a dialogue about 2 ducks talking. One was a crossdresser. And yes I explained about what a crossdresser is.
Let me explain to you why I homeschool.
Last week, there was a story in the news about a MIDDLE SCHOOL in Maine that is handing out BIRTHCONTROL PILLS to middle school children WITHOUT THEIR PARENTS CONSENT. Anyone remember the news stories about children bringing guns to school? I remember when I was pregnant, there were middle schoolers pregnant at that time. That was 10 years ago. We don't like the standards set by society today. We are sometime very far in the right wing. We are trying to teach our children different. We study the bible everyday. We adjust our learning to Anthony's ability. It works for us.
Personally, I've been changing lately. I want to be a housewife. I want to do things traditionally. I clean my floors with vinegar to reduce the chemicals I use. If I could find washing sodas, I'd make homemade laundry soap. Our house isn't like most others and quite frankly we like it that way. If you visit us, my husband may witness about Jesus to you. Eventually, I'd like to travel the world and do missionary work. We definitely will adopt again. Maybe more than once.
So please have a sense of humor about what is written on my blogs. I am with my children alot of the time, somedays 24/7. When I'm not here, Patrick is. We know our children.

Ah, that week was not the week I was proudest to be a "Mainer." As a Mom I was horrified, but as a social worker the policy as a whole made sense. We just have to remain the biggest influences in our kids lives.
