But I love your "snarkiness". Did you know the NEA endorses Huckabee for '08 Pres, the same man the HSLDA endorses. Doesn't make much sense does it? Did I mention I truly loathe and despise the NEA? Have you read their article on homeschoolers: http://www.nea.org/espcolumns/dv040220.html Ugh, I can't stand them! Grr…I hate the NEA. But I love your “snarkiness”.

You have commented on my blog several times, but I don't think I have ever seen YOUR blog. Not sure why. Sometimes I get real busy and mean to click through on stuff. Sometimes I think I did, but then find out that I didn't. We have a 10 year old dyslexic, gifted, right-brained thinker in our family too. What a joy! Add that to a couple of non-dyslexic, gifted, right-brained thinkers and we have a nuthouse on our hands. Homeschoolers are definitely weird. Oh but the fun we have! Wait, I didn't say that out loud did I? I mean, oh the drudgery and pain of educating them at home. It is so draining and difficult. NOT! Smile. Thanks for the link (which ultimately gets credited to COD). I love that socialization quote too!
