    Hello All~
    I spent some time reading some of your posts before I registered, and this seems like a quality forum for homeschooling parents. I'm looking forward to learning and sharing!

    I'm Jeanna, 28 yo. I have a son, who is 10. We just started homeschooling in August, but it's something I've wanted to do for a long time now. I was a single parent for nearly ten years until I found my (almost) husband, and working several jobs to put myself through school and provide for my son.

    During this extremely exciting and hopeful time in my life, I am mainly seeking encouragement and knowledge, and perhaps kinship.

    Thank you for listening.. :)

    ~J.

    I'm from PA, too. But currently reside in misery..er.. Missouri. I was born and raised in The Burgh. I *sniff* miss *sniff* home.

    Anyhow. Welcome to the Spot! You're right that this is a great forum. But beware, it's addicting ;)

    Do you live near Greensburg? We go out that way about once a year. We live on the eastern side of the state though. We're glad to have you here!

    I'm about 1 1/2 hrs away from Greensburg. My Mom lives very close to there.

    Thanks for the warm welcomes, everyone! :)

    Welcome, Flowerchild. Just realized I never welcomed you.

    You still can't get on the "Other Conversation" board. No wonder it has slowed down. I mean I don't think anyone posts as much as you! LOL. I mean I am always saying "Is that Flowerchild AGAIN?" LOL.

    LOL I know!! It's crazy that I am an addict and not an "other" yet. I just have to keep posting, though, because I am psyched to have people who understand to talk to!!

    You just wait until I can get on that board! :p lol.
