10 ways to know you are a homeschooling mom
Here is my own personal top 10, feel free to add your own in the comments.
1. You stand waiting at Goodwill doors as they open for their .50 sale and instead of heading to the clothes like everyone else you head to the books.
2. You guard your bids on e-bay like a mother lion, knowing you'll save a few buck on the homeschool material your bidding on.
3. Lesson planning is what you do in your "spare" time.
4. You overcome your fear of defacing a book. After putting it in a binder you feel like a victorious warrior.
5. Bookshelves become for books, not home accessories
6. You know what the abbreviations all stand for, even if you never plan on using that curriculum.
7. You join yahoo groups of books you don't use yet, but plan on in the future
8. You give up dining rooms, spare bedrooms, and private spaces just to have a place to do school.
9. Your birthday and Christmas lists come from places like rainbow resource, cbd, and amazon.
10. Your child starts to behave when you remind them that if they were in regular school, they would have to be wearing shoes.
