On the fourth day of home school my neighbor said to me,“What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Canyou homeschool legally?”

On the fifth day of home school my neighbor said to me,“YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Arethey socialized? Can you home school legally?”

On the sixth day of home school my neighbor said to me,“How long will you home school? YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.?Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you home school legally?”

On the seventh day of home school my neighbor said to me,“Look at what they’re missing? How long will you home school? YOUARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.?Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you home school legally?”

Ahhhh! You've changed colors on me! This is very sheek. Very warm and dignified.

I also like the new sassiness category. May need to steal this at some point.

Happy blogging! I'm working on drumming up more comments on my blog. ;)
