Each Monday, I've been sharing the most effective ways to answer some of the common questions homeschoolers are asked. I have already discussed five issues: why, legality, socialization, education and extra curricular activities. I only have two more issues I want to address and this week's issue is good questions.

Art Linkletter passed away last week and prayers went up for his family. My dd brought this video to my attention and I just had to post it for this week's Friday Funnies. WARNING: Be sure you don't have anything in your mouth while watching. We don't want you to choke.
