Pre-registration begins

Well I've pre-registered for our "homeschooling" program, though I still have a lot of paperwork to turn in, I'll be doing most of that tomorrow. We're winding up this year and already I can't wait to get started on this program.

I informed the attorney I work for about our plans. Sort of informed her accidently though. She was surprised but supportive.

Yesterday I was dropping my son off at his middle school and there in front were five elderly men protesting abortion.

Whatever your position is on this topic, and whatever my position, I totally had a problem with this protest.

Two of the men had large 4 foot by 4 foot posters, in color. The first was of an aborted baby with the guts torn apart, and the second was of an aborted baby torn to pieces. It was horrible. And more, these men were displaying these photos at the entrance to the drive thru of the school. I suppose even if they had been at the exit of the drive thru, AFTER the children were dropped off, I would still have the same issue.

I approached one of the men and said, "my son attends school here and I don't want him seeing these horrible pictures." He turned to me and said, "talk to him about it."

Well, how about I talk to him about it when I feel the time is right - not you!
