Tracking the Elusive Homeschooler

Ramona: Mommy, when I whistle, you honk, okay?

Me: Okay.

Ramona: (Whistles)

Me: Honk.

Ramona: (Whistles)

Me: Honk.

(This continued for a minute.)

Me: Wait a minute ... why are we honking again?

Ramona: It's the way we communicate. You know. As homeschoolers do?

Me: This is how homeschoolers communicate?

Ramona: Yes. We're a rare sub-species.

Um... I wonder if the OTHER homeschoolers know this??

Karen Edmisten said...

Y'know, Tanita, we did not seem to attract any so perhaps our methods are suspect. :)

Danae said...

Isn't she a little young to know that well-kept homeschooling secret?

Karen Edmisten said...

Danae, she's advanced for her age. :)

But she does not yet know the secret handshake and she has yet to take the Homeschoolers Anti-social Pledge.
