I just had an interesting little conversation with the cashier and bagger at Kroger. I am at this store all the time, kids keep eating :)
It started with hey you are here early(I usually shop later at night) are the kids at home? I said yes it's too hot and the fact that I'm here now is because we are out of food AGAIN.
He said yep with kids out of school they are home eating more...
I said oh we homeschool.
The cashier: Really? Wow! Do you like it?
The bagger: I could never do that, I love sports...
Me: Yes we love it and homeschoolers can play sports, they can do anything they want to do.
Bagger started talking about school, sports, homework etc....
Cashier said, "And they still learn?"
I said, "We don't do anything like school, we follow our BLISS!"
Her jaw dropped and I rendered her speechless....
I was just thinking no they don't really learn because you can only do that between 8-2, Monday-Friday with a qualified teacher.... BWHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See, so many people have never even relished the thought of NOT sending kids to school....It blows my mind...
I'm planting seeds and putting it out there all the time!

My oldest "would" be going to Kindergarten next year. I can't wait to have more moments like this as people ask and wonder about how we possibly live and learn without school. :)
