For the next several days I will be posting about the World Congress of Families. This year it is being held in Sydney, Australia.  Remember how we helped to raise funds for Angela to attend? She is sending daily reports of the presentations, interviews she is able to have, and more. I am excited to share with you what she is experiencing. There are so many around the world - politicians, religious leaders, community organizers, trained professionals, and others - who are dedicated to defending the family. I will try to post each day's events in order so you are not reading them backwards as you scroll down. I have broken up Angela's summaries into several posts so it isn't overwhelming to see a HUGE post. Remember, if you have any questions you would like her to ask when she gives her interviews, leave them in the comments and I will pass them along to her.

You know you homeschool if...

. . .your children try rolling downhill in a square box.

Just a little humor poking fun at ourselves. They were actually crawling downhill while the others helped to roll the box, like a hamster in a wheel. I have no idea what they were thinking.

  2. I grew up with 10 sibs. That was a normal day's play for us! And we weren't homeschooled! I think it's because we weren't so wired up technology-wise as most kids are these days. Sad.

  5. Dent in the corners a little...and you could have taken a photo of me as a kid. My brothers and I were pretty darn inventive. I think that Homeschooling just gives that creativity back to this generation. :)

  6. Ha! At least you have a Christ-centered home, even if your children don't understand simple physics. :)

  7. Love this! We always poked fun at us as homeschoolers when I was a kid and still do now. If I spell something wrong or say something silly, I will look at my mom and say...."It's becuase I was homeschoooled" :)

    1. That's exactly why I did this post! We do the same thing. It's our family joke. If we made a mistake of some sort - whether it relates to academics or not - we say "It's because we homeschool." We also tell good friends who "get it" when they make a mistake "It's because you were/are public schooled." It keeps things light and humorous!

Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you'll get one thing done. ☺ There, don't you feel better?

Please leave a comment! I enjoy hearing your thoughts, whether you agree with me or not. If we all agreed on everything how boring would that be? Worse than eating white chocolate, because it's fake. So be real, be yourself.
