You Know You're A Homeschool Mom When...

You get to change more than diapers, you get to change their minds.

When a child busts a lip, and after seeing she's okay, you round up
some scotch tape to capture some blood and look at it under the
microscope!

Your children never ever leave the "why?" stage.

When your teenager decides to take one community college course, and
comes home and asks you why the teacher wrote "At" on his paper. (A+)

You ask for, and get, a copier instead of a diamond tennis bracelet
for your wedding anniversary.

Your kids think reading history is best accomplished while lying on
the floor with their head resting on the side of their patient dog.

Your husband can walk in at the end of a long day and tell how the
science experiment went just by looking at the house.

Your neighbors think you are insane.

Your formal dining room now has a computer, copy machine, and many
book shelves and there are educational posters and maps all over the
walls.

You have meal worms growing in a container....on purpose.

Talking out loud to yourself is a parent/teacher conference.

You take off for a teacher in-service day because the principal
needs clean underwear.

You can't make it through a movie without pointing out the
historical inaccuracies.

You step on math manipulatives on your pre-dawn stumble to the
bathroom.

Some day your children will consider you to be a miracle-working
expert and will turn to you for advice.

You can't make it through the grocery produce department without
asking your preschooler the name and color of every vegetable.

You can't put your produce in your cart without asking your older
student to estimate its weight and verify accuracy.

You live in a one-house schoolroom.

Love the teacher in-service day!

I love this!! I especially like the one where the husband comes home at the end of the day and can tell how the science experiment went based on the condition of the house, LOL.

[momofafew]

Oh..and one day recently, we could not do what we had planned as my maternity clothes were not clean! I only own 3 pairs of maternity shorts/capris and I ran out. LOL

LOL My favorite is the parent/teacher conference. I have lots, and lots of those.
And all my neighbors DO think I am insane.

I love the part about living in a one house schoolroom.

It is from A to Z Home's Cool Humor Section. I haven't apparently been a member long enough to post the URL, but if you put the joke title in Google, my page with it comes up first.

I don't know where I originally got it, but I keep adding to it when I hear another fitting "definition!"

Oh, and the one about parent teacher conferences did originate in my home.

Our son and his friend, Ramon were angling to allow Ramon to spend the night... but it was a school night.

"Ramon, you know you can't have a sleep over on a school night!"

"But, Mrs. Z," he pleaded, "Tomorrow is parent teacher conferences. There is no school!"

He frowned thoughtfully, "I guess you are going to have to talk to yourself!" He continued brightly.

Anyway, that sort of evolved into "What do you call it when a homeschool mom talks to herself?"

You guessed it: "A parent-teacher conference!"

Keep laughing! Homeschooling is supposed to be FUN!
