I was too, k-12. :-) Often friends assume that I'm therefore a homeschooling expert, but I still feel pretty clueless. The only thing I know about anything is that it'll all be okay one way or another. :-) Second generation homeschooling for the win!Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17699055172049185864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883970092765312318.post-1012413997255009112015-09-07T22:50:04.623-06:002015-09-07T22:50:04.623-06:00If it makes you feel any better about not being ab...If it makes you feel any better about not being able to look away from the US presidential election, the Huffington Post is covering Trump's campaign in the entertainment section instead of on their politics page. Apparently, they are so irritated by how he is messing with politics here that they cannot take his candidacy seriously.jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567286104645119169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883970092765312318.post-89294212810217803612015-09-06T19:45:49.966-06:002015-09-06T19:45:49.966-06:00A clean house feels amazing.

I knew you loved on a ranch but I never saw you write about farming and whatnot. Mystery solved! <br /><br />And "omnipresence of the insignificant" is so masterfully appropriate it sheds light on my daily existential experience.

This is intriguing!

I only know of two adults who were homeschooled and neither had a good experience (though they aren't anti-homeschool). I guess it would help me to know what's good/what's bad from the student's perspective but it would also help me to know that I'm not screwing my kids up!Karynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10775592484866509189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883970092765312318.post-49644405283594503242015-09-04T09:11:09.946-06:002015-09-04T09:11:09.946-06:00Thank you for graciously stepping in to host SQT t...Thank you for graciously stepping in to host SQT this week!

I hadn't read it until now, and WOWZA! I love how he just calls everyone to task. Such a cool guy. The whole immigration thing is something I have definitely been getting more of a perspective on since moving to Oklahoma recently, because there are a LOT of immigrants, at least that I have seen. Some legal, and some probably/definitely illegal. And while I am not a fan of illegal immigration, being surrounded by these people puts actual faces, souls, and names to the immigration issue. Eh, it's a hard issue. But like Chaput said, we gotta keep remember the family. <br /><br />I have been hoping, praying, and trying to convince myself that all the Trump hype is just that-hype. When I first heard he was running, I thought, "Wait, what? All I know about him is that he's rich. Is he cut out for President?" The more I've been learning since then, the more my concerns have grown. God's taking care of us, and I'm sure He's got everything under control-we have plenty of time for people to regain their sanity before the elections haha :) AnneMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462442204217572325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883970092765312318.post-24298380845163129562015-09-04T04:26:10.419-06:002015-09-04T04:26:10.419-06:00Literal LOL @ "We Shall Overcomb."Literal LOL @ "We Shall Overcomb."Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02061008814154779060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883970092765312318.post-37124015252061039712015-09-04T00:53:05.174-06:002015-09-04T00:53:05.174-06:00Love Chesterton too, and I hear you about the clea...Love Chesterton too, and I hear you about the clean house!
