Homeschool Blog Awards 2005
This year, SpunkyHomeschool, The Old Schoolhouse Magazine, and HomeschoolBlogger.com have come together to create the Homeschool Blog Awards. Please go and check out all of the wonderful blogs nominated. I am humbled by those who thought enough of my blog to nominate Bioluminescence for Best Homeschool Photo Blog.
Even if you aren't homeschooling, I encourage you to go and peruse the various categories and blogs nominated. Afterall, we aren't just homeschoolers. We are families who enjoy sharing our lives with others. We are mommies who have to figure out what's for dinner every night just like most mommies out there. We are daddies who have to get up and go to work each day so that we can pay our bills. We are children who are interested in having our parents take us to see The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. Yesterday. We are teens who have pesky little sisters and brothers and who have to fight our parents for the computer so we can blog ourselves. So, we may have a recipe or a good book recommendation for you, a thought or two about politics or fatherhood to share, a picture of what we just built out of Legos, a cool new hobby or something we just want to rant about.
While you're visiting the Homeschool Blog Awards, you might want to consider voting for someone you know in the Best Homeschool Photo Blog category. I have to admit, though, there's some stiff competition out there. Just vote your conscience and remember I know where some of you live. Happy Holidays!
Winter
I KNOW it must be winter (though I sleep) ---
I know it must be winter, for I dream
I dip my bare feet in the running stream,
And flowers are many, and the grass grows deep.
