Well, we finally did it! September 8, 2003.  After years of challenges, trying to
                           find a group that completely suits the needs of my family ~ with hesitation, I decided to start my own. Everything on
                           this site is not exactly complete. But I wanted something immediate and useful for those of you who are seeking the same/or
                           similar homeschooling resources, along with a supportive community. My intention with this site was to provide an additional warm
                           and secure place where EVERYONE felt genuinely welcomed.
                           As participation grows, we plan to start our Social Gatherings: park days, field trips and
                           other extracurricular activities in Southern California. Each gathering will be held at different times and locations within
                           Los Angeles County. In the meantime, please browse the site, introduce yourself on the message boards or drop us a line. This
                           is a support group for all of us. Please feel free to volunteer (time, expertise) or share (writings/ideas/etc.) with YOUR
                           group. Comments and Suggestions are encouraged. This is something new for me, and I am open to hearing your positive thoughts.
                           
                           Hopefully many of you can leave this site with something you can use, while you leave the rest
                           behind. 
                           I plan to share my musing with you when time permits. Hope you enjoyed this edition of
