Hi, neighbor! If you're listening, we call you "Pkarlgh."  

It's another challenging day in Homeschool Land.  Shockingly, when you set out to educate your children, it's not all smiling faces and photo ops.   Lots of people think they can solve this problem by throwing another trillion dollars at the public school system--to reward the "good teachers" who are trying to get 8-year-olds to stop writing more wrong answers before you've finished erasing the first one...  

John thinks there are actually people in the world who WANT to educate their own kids, but the Peaches thinks the word "want" isn't quite accurate. Nobody WANTS to kill their flesh daily.

Only self-sacrificial love will motivate someone to keep marching down the Parenting Path, on really hard days like today. 

Cami is making banana pancakes in the background, so please allow for a few important recipe-related interruptions.

Next, apparently some people think we need to water the deserts until they become forests... 

Also, someone asks John for his credentials when it comes to "the ability to certify Truth."
