1. Your dining room table is covered in books, only used to eat on when you have company.
2. Nap time is free reading time for older children.
3. You bought an expensive printer, because it was cheaper then having Kinkos print off all those WONDERFUL e-Books.
4. Science is part of life—poop, pee, snot, puke, mold, dead animals and live animals. Gross, but true…
5. Your son or maybe daughter attempted chemistry while cleaning the kitchen, and you lived to tell about it after the initial evacuation.
6. Your dream house will have a library—not the typical kind you see in homes, but like the public library- a reading area and then shelves from floor to ceiling from wall to wall.
7. You take your children to used book sales and you all behave like it is a Black Friday shopping spree.
8. Your children have jobs, even if they are only two—they may be your oldest assistant.
9. You and your children have scared the mailman when he came to the door with a box. Better yet, you stalk him from April to August because that is when the best curriculum and book deals are.
10. The poor guy repairing your appliances can not get his head in to see what is wrong, because your children are “helping”. It has now be turned into a homeschool lesson, he leaves and your husband ends up fixing it.
I honestly could continue this through probably 300. lol But the linky is a Top Ten list… Please see the other Top Ten list by checking <—-that red link.
I so love this list! Would love to hear more. . .
#10: I’ve actually been amazed to see how OK with it our repairmen have been. From the furnace guy to the electrician, they’ve all been willing to explain things to the kids and even enlist them as helpers:0)

This really made me laugh today. #5 is my favorite! I remember one time I was cleaning the bathroom toilet and put bleach and ammonia in to try and clean it. I was 8, didn’t know any better! LOL! I think my mom counted that as science!
