Howdy!

Hmmm.... I'm not sure I knew what I was getting into when Shawna invited me to join here, but let's just see where it leads for now. I guess I can really be a super Homeschool Hacks newbie since my kiddos are 3 and 1. But really, doesn't the homeschooling paradigm start at birth of each child?

Hi Amy, this smart little site just showed me that you are online! (Or maybe you are like me and were called away from your computer HOURS ago...and it only looks like you are online!) Anyway, what time is it there? Its 8PM here....approaching late for me! I go to bed with the chickens these days. By the way, I was a once cow girl too....but when I was a kid.

(Oh ya, my sister and I went to school every day!)

Your "about me" section makes me think that you'd be a really interesting person to sit and have a cup of tea with sometime! I'm guessing there is never a dull moment at your house? Sounds fun! Looking forward to getting to know you. ;)

Preeecisely! Sometimes I just stare at the comment box, shrug my shoulders and move on.

And my report card always said, "Cyndy needs to learn the appropriate times to socialize."

Go figure. :)

This is me with my son back in Christmas of 2005, when he was 1 and I still had long hair.
