Inspired by a little-known picture book from the pen of Bethany Tudor, this is a diary, of sorts, where I document some of my thoughts, activities, and ideas as I explore the challenges met by the characters in the story: hard work, the care and nurture of others, housekeeping skills, life changes, charity, community, and cooperation, among others. Like Samuel and Samantha, the ducks in the tale, I struggle and succeed, cope and celebrate, work and play, handling the tasks that come my way. I invite you to join me on my journey.

Comment Response

In response to a comment posted to an earlier blog entry (see Censorship Concerns):

I received the information about the French homeschool legislation, Amendments 127 & 128, in an email alert from the Home School Legal Defense Association. Information on the bill itself may be found at Les Enfants d’Abord, the website of a French homeschool support organization. Unfortunately, the website is in French and my French is woefully inadequate for translation purposes. If you are fluent in French, it may be what you need/desire. Otherwise, at this time, I am unable to find any truly helpful information that is in English. Sorry.

As for the veracity of the information from HSLDA, I have no reason to question it. In my eleven years of homeschooling, I have never known HSLDA to pass on inaccurate information. To my knowledge, the data they provide on homeschooling in foreign countries comes from the homeschool leadership in those locations. Who better to know what is actually occurring than the local residents. Again, sorry I can’t be more helpful.
