I had spent a few days recruiting 12 ladies to be part of our "14 Days of Homeschooling" ensemble, and we performed a version of that holiday homeschool classic that included props and funny hats - inspired by some YouTube postings by other homeschool moms. I did have it videotaped, and if I can ever figure out how to transfer the video to the computer, I will get it posted here!
My dear friend Eileen was our special speaker for the evening, and she shared part of her amazing testimony of how God has shown his power and purpose in her life in a talk she entitled "Believe!" Very appropriate for this Christmas season!
I have pictures that I'll try to get loaded this weekend - computer and camera are still not getting along.
THE 14 DAYS OF HOMESCHOOL
sung to the tune of “The 12 Days of Christmas “
On the first day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “Can you homeschool legally?”
On the second day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “ Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the third day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “ Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the fourth day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “ What about sports teams? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the fifth day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “ You are so strange! What about sports teams? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the sixth day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “How long will you homeschool? You are so strange! What about sports teams? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the seventh day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? You are so strange! What about sports teams? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the eighth day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “Why do you do this? How long will you homeschool? You are so strange! What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the ninth day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “They’ll miss the Prom! Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? You are so strange! What about sports teams? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the tenth day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “What about graduation? They’ll miss the Prom! Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? You are so strange! What about sports teams? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the eleventh day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “I could never do that. What about graduation? They’ll miss the Prom! Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? You are so strange! What about sports teams? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the twelfth day of homeschool my neighbor said to me, “Can they go to college? I could never do that. What about graduation? They’ll miss the Prom! Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? You are so strange! What about sports teams? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?”
On the thirteenth day of homeschool, I thoughtfully replied, “ Colleges love homeschoolers! Sure, you could do this. We have graduation. And we have a Prom! We do it cuz we believe in it! They aren’t missing anything! We might homeschool forever. WE ARE NOT STRANGE. We have great sports teams. Sometimes we give them tests. Yes, they are socialized. And we homeschool legally!
On the fourteenth day of homeschool, my neighbor said to me, “How can I get started? I think can do this! Why didn’t you tell me? Can I help with the Prom? When is the next conference? This is soooo exciting! Where do I buy curriculum? Homeschooling is not so strange! What will my mother-in-law say? Can we join the basketball team? God, please give me strength! Together we’ll homeschool legally!
