I am not awake right now. I am sound asleep. How am I blogging in my sleep you may ask? Easy, because I just stumbled upon a tool that allows you to blog in my absence. How cool is that? "This Internet thing is wild." (Tay Zonday) Anyway, in my last post I introduced a contest and I asked my readers to tell me why they blog about homeschooling (or education). I figured I might as well tell why I do it. I blog about homeschooling because I am a learner by nature. In fact, I am a kinesthetic learner. I learn by doing. So I started my homeschooling blog so I could record everything I learned, to cement it in my head and keep a record. I continued my homeschooling blog because now that i know what I know, I can't keep it to myself. I love sharing homeschooling encouragements with people who are on the fence, or don't know what to do. I love visiting with other homeschoolers through the electronic exchange of ideas. Like homeschooling, I just like it.

So I decided to go ahead and host a giveaway blog. The Item the winner will receive is Book 5 of Draw.Write.Now , by Marie Hablitzel and Kim Stitzer. This is as drawing and handwriting book for kids. The value of this book is 10.95. So what do you have to do to win this book? 1. Write a post on your own blog entitled: Why Do I Blog about (homeschooling, or education)? 2. Link back to this contest post. 3. Leave a comment to let me know you completed the task. A random winner will be drawn from the list of the participants. ~Contest ends and Drawing held Dec 15, 2007 Read more Notes From a Homeschooling Mom Visit Free Home Ed. Homeschool For Free!
