Attention Homeschool Ping List Members
May 25th, 2005 | 2Jedismom

Posted on 05/25/2005 8:16:28 AM PDT by 2Jedismom

My dear fellow homeschoolers and homeschool supporters.

Over the last few years, I have been honored to have known you and have you as part of my homeschool ping list. However, over the last year or so, I have not been as faithful to ping you to news and information as I should have been. I've got two kids I'm homeschooling now and have been very busy.

Someone has offered to take over the list and I'm so appreciative.

DaveLoneRanger has graciously offered to assume the task. DLR, perhaps you could tell you a bit about himself?

My friends, I have never passed on your names to anyone before and would not do so without your permission now. You have trusted me to use your names discreetly, and for homeschool issues only. I trust Dave will do the same.

So here is what I need YOU to do! If you want OFF what will soon be Dave's Homeschool Ping List, please freepmail me by the end of this week and I will quickly and confidentially remove you from it. After this Friday afternoon, May 27th, you will need to contact Dave to be removed.

If you are just now hearing about this ping list, freepmail Dave to be added!

I will be passing the ping list to Dave this Friday afternoon.

Thank you all so much for the trust you placed in me. It has been such an honor knowing many of you as long as I have and look forward to seeing and freeping with you out in the threads of Free Republic.

God bless you!

I appreciate the work you have done! And of course I will be delighted to be added to Dave's ping list, and wish you all the best in your homeschooling endeavours! (I understand how crazy it can be, mine are still young too - and between teaching and sports, well, you know! Just crazy!)

Oh, right, I'd forgotten you run the Narnia ping! Cool, now I'm on two of your ping lists.

..please help me keep an eye out, because I don't often come across stories like that.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for being willing to take over the ping list!

There are two national stories that are current and have to do with homeschoolers. One was posted yesterday in regards to a homeschool boy winning the National Geography Bee - WOOHOO!!!

The other story is happening next Wednesday and Thursday - the National Spelling Bee in Washington D.C.

There are 34 homeschooled children out of the 273 participants. My son will be one of them due to winning the Colorado State spelling bee. We are leaving on Sunday to fly to Washington and would appreciate any and all prayers. My son is speller #37 and info regarding the bee can be found at www.spellingbee.com.

Congratulations on your son. That is awesome! You must be a proud parent (mom or dad?).

Dave, you seem very accomplished and mature for your age. I read your profile and was very impressed. Nice to have you on board.

Well, it has finally come to this.

Tonto is communicating with the Lone Ranger over the internet.

Please add me to the homeschool ping list.

Thank you for your faithfulness in this undertaking! I have appreciated it. I will be glad to be on Dave's list.

My daughter is graduating and leaving for college this year, and my son is an award-winning debater. I work as a judge coordinator for the tournaments in our league, and do understand about becoming more and more busy with your homeschooling schedule!!!
