I just wanted to let you know I received your request and I am looking forward to keeping in touch. I love home schooling my daughter. She is 9 and I have a 2 1/2 year old. Do you plan on keeping your children home schooled? That is something I am still deciding when my daughter starts Jr. High. I can't wait to read your book. Add me to your fan list. From one mom to another, you are an inspiration. Keep up the good work! view Deidra's profile | Ping Deidra Ann W., Oct 26, 2009, 7:32PM EDT Hey-I don't always check my pings!
