Oops! I’m not here today. I’m over at DC Metro Moms, telling my story and my reaction to the Avon Walk here in Washington, D.C. today. Feel free to drop by and say hello!
Before you go, though, a BIG THANKS to the MOMocrats, both for their steady writing and analysis, and for this gift that they’re sending me this week! A bunch of us just won in their Mother’s Day comment contest, and I’m getting a brand-new MOMocrats tank to wear out and about. Hurrah!
Did you see their exclusive interview with Barack Obama?

Yay for our friends in the Avon Walk. I am completely blown away by them. We should go give them foot rubs.
Congrats on your win!

That is so great that they got an interview with Obama. Were any questions asked with regard to his positions related to homeschooling? I called the campaign to ask, and no one knew. I’m seriously considering homeschooling my daughter, though – I think this is such a good thing to do if you can – and I don’t want legislation to try to block that.

I have a friend who worked the walk on her bike, and people didn’t know there were so many hills in DC! I’m glad everyone did well.

Congratulations on your win! Thanks for reading and linking to MOMocrats.
KLH, we didn’t ask a question about homeschooling, but it’s an interesting topic to pursue. We have an interview that one of the MOMocrats (herself a homeschooling mom) asked of Elizabeth Edwards in a phone interview a few months back, when Edwards was still in the race. The only anti-homeschooling legislation that I’ve seen proposed has been on the state level.
