no poopy diapers, no 2 1/2 yr old trying to pull my shirt off saying he wants nee nees, no one calling me Mom, no cooking, no cleaning! I'm starting to feel giddy.
Our ladies retreat is next month, but I will pass.... I have never been to ladies retreat. But, I think Noah is still a little young to skip 'nee nees'. How funny that she calls it that!
Ya know what, Iowa has a bad bill being kicked around on the floor. If it passes, it will be that everyone uses the same standard curriculum.... homeschoolers, private schools, christians schools and public schools.  Yesterday it was being debated and I sure hope it didn't go anywhere! I guess there are several families that home school that have been sucked into the home assist program here (free books and tests when they join)... So the home schoolers don't fight these bills like they use to. Iowa would be the first state that would do something like this.
We also woke up to snow today

I hadn't heard about that bill, Annie. It would be awful if something like that passed.

Yea, I didn't hear about it either. I looked at HSLDA and it is on there, but had no indication that it would be debated about yesterday. I hate that when they discuss things and they don't give anyone a chance to catch wind of it in time to really get the word out. Maybe this state doesn't have a home school representative at the capital all the time.

i have started a new thread all written in Leet if y'all would like to join me.
A couple of my favorite pranks were when LLisa and I announced the betrothal of David and Joy, when Laura... and I had a big fight in chat, and there were other fun ones, but those two are the first that I remember.

I remember that. I wasn't a mod then so I wasn't sure. I was pretty sure it was a prank but couldn't be sure.

Rebekah read her first sentence! 
There were some people that thought that we were really serious and thought that it was awful. It was so funny.

I just got off the phone with Branson MO. They were trying to sell me a trip. I wish we could of done it, but oh well. They suckered me into the whole phone call because I put my name in a 'win a car' drawing at a mall in Iowa City. I was hoping for the car!!

I don't get over to this thread very often, but is this where you come to show off a new April Fool's Day avatar?

Awesome Sen-10!
I thought about doing a PINK book but then the whole book thing was my idea so I chose to non conform with my sig line. The official conformist line is a quote about the education system being a true totalitarian state. or some such.

I know! They look so little don't they? It's been awhile since I've seen David, but Joy looks a lot older than that now.

Oh MY! I remember doctoring that photo- David had/HAS such huge hands!
he is getting quite tall too.
Hey ellie- I was gonna say he was quickly catching up to Jared, BUT sadly Jared has shot up a bit since we saw you 2 weeks ago! Really, pants that FIT in length the week we left for vacation are visibly too short now. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN OVER NIGHT?!?!?!

Yep. Great avatar.
The betrothal was the best April Fools joke ever. I loved it.
