Thanks! I don't have many homeschooled friends, and I'm a bit socially awkward so talking through computers is always better for me xD
Haha, and I guess I should mention both my sisters AND my mom are gingers also. No doubting we're related :D
When we were running errands this a.m., the cashier asked my dad why his kids aren't at school. The look on the cashier's face was priceless ^_^
