I HATE “My Humps”. My five year old was singing it one day and I was furious. That song is off limits. When I explained what her “humps and lumps” were, she got this shocked look on her face.

Then she walks in singing “Doncha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me..” JESUS!!

I don’t listen to that crap, my preteen and five year old listen to Country music with me and old classic rock (they can jam out to some Journey or Led Zepelin-I haven’t explained what lemons and juice running down my leg is though, guess double standard HA!) but their little friends sing it at school...

Home school seems like a good option.

Hey, can I get some prayers from you guys? I have decided to stay home with my kids and father (who has alzheimers) instead of the rat race of working moms. I love my career, but it is going to take a back seat to my family for a while. I will be driving a bus (for health insurance), but I need some prayers. I’m nervous. Thanks so much! You guys are like my online family or something. My husband would think I was nutso for saying that because you people aren’t ‘real’ to him.

A prayer for you and your father and the rest of your family. May things work out well for all of you. Here is hoping a cure for Alzheimer's will be found soon. They are working on it.

You sure can! Prayers for all of you.

I love my career, but it is going to take a back seat to my family for a while. I will be driving a bus (for health insurance), but I need some prayers. I’m nervous.

I left a career i loved too to stay home with my kids. And lemme tell ya, no matter how nervous you are about it (i was too), you will see the fruits of it someday and that is worth so much more than any damn career. Remember the old saying about what do you think of when you die. Not your career, but your family. My kids all 4 of them turned out great! You're gonna be great and they're gonna be great too! Sometimes you will feel out of the loop wrt the outside world, but you can be involved in their school activities or see your friends and go shopping alone to relieve some of the stress.

Thanks so much! You guys are like my online family or something. My husband would think I was nutso for saying that because you people aren’t ‘real’ to him.

Tell him we are REAL! And we are like a family of sisters (and a few brothers). Even tho we've never met in person, we know quite a bit about one another, have lots of things in common, and we all get along pretty dang well (most of the time).

I HATE “My Humps”

Oh but we are real........please tell your hubby.

Each and every one of us!! :)

We all support each other in every way that is possible.

Best of luck to you with your homeschooling, I think it is a great idea. If I had children in school these days I would have to do the same thing.
