W.A.H.E. "WooHoo"

The Wausau Area Home Educators had their soccer invitational this month. And you know what? It does not even matter who won or lost; everyone seemed to have a good time...except for a couple coaches. You know it never fails, it seems like some of the adults lose sight of what this is all about, they get a little too intense and began yelling at their own kids. I wanted to walk across the field and display a few of my own kicking skills, but I held back. Caleb was a great goalie in a couple of the games; (way to go Caleb), and scored a few goals as well (woohoo).

When our kids were young we taught them at home and they turned out very well. We did have a number of people warning us that our kids would be socially stunted and backward if they did not have an on campus experience. Everyone knows that home schooled children are backward and shy right? Wrong! Home Education is a great way to get kids to relate to the world around them; old folks, mom and dad, neighbor kids, people at church, and the list goes on. Home schooling takes down the barriers of hallways and age restrictions that keep other kids stunted and cloistered with children of their own age and geographical location. Okay, I am done, that was my rant for the month.

The sun was shining, the air was fresh the competition was fierce and everyone seemed to have fun. Everyone came out a winner. We all rock! WooHoo!
