    Welcome Robin! I'm a homeschool mom too. We just finished our first year of 9th grade! High school is intimidating. I always love to see other moms that make it all the way through, it gives me encouragement that it can be done.

    It can and isn't as overwhelming as it appears!! My 23 year old is in his second year of his PhD program at University of Tennessee, my 20 year old is starting her second year of her Masters program at Texas State University, and my 18 year old will start Baylor University in August. Homeschoolers do just fine in college or anything else they put their minds to :) You've got this!!!

    Thank y'all for the warm welcome. I can't wait to get to "know" y'all in the future :)

    Oh, and for the boss people who allow the store to let you know that you've already purchased something you are trying to place in your shopping cart - THANK YOU. Sometimes my memory doesn't keep up with my shopping. My husband thanks you too :giggle

    Isn't that just THE best?!! My memory stunk when I was young. Now, it's REALLY BAD. Thank you, Laura, for having this feature in the store! She's the best store owner on the planet. :goldstars

    Robin, I'm delighted to find you here!!! I know your pages from seeing you around (I am one of the GSO blog team) I am so so happy that you found us, and the Challenges!!!!!!! The learning Pad is amazing and we often have events in which there are more learning tutorials, and we also have the Speed Scrap and Slow Scraps Chats , the ones that read Technique, will teach you something, have a tutorial, sometimes we learn all together!!!! Not sure if someone has mentioned this before, but if you need any help finding your way to any of the events, let us know.
    I can say with all the pride in the world (and the experience of having been around for almos6 10 years scrapping) this is the very best community you will find in the whole of digi-land!!!!
    so. super welcome, and if you need anything, just give us a shout!!!!!

    Waving!!! I am so sorry to be late in welcoming you. I have been on vacation for a bit. I too am a homeschooling momma. I have 7 kids, 4 done with HSing and only 4 left in house! Scrapping whilst teaching is my sanity! lol
    Please ask questions, we all love to help others become addicted too!
