And when I showed the example to my kids, they all agreed....and one hugged me and said "thanks for homeschooling me mom!" lol

Guess I'm old fashion....but the old "Schoolhouse Rocks" songs really helped my kids.

Read this article http://nypost.com/2013/09/15/obamacare-will-question-your-sex-life/ that talks of the questions to be asked with obamacare and how this information will be stored. I'm a big girl and think I can handle myself with it, but I realize that some serious talks will need to...
