Rofl!!! Jackie, I usually let my daughters answer the questions about their
schooling when we're out. They usually don't permit me a word in edgewise,
anyhow. When I'm asked directly, I usually say that our family is educated
at home. I like the co-creator verbage, though. Have to think about how to
use this.
