Unschooling/Homeschooling meme

I have two major goals in mind for this blog. The first is to connect my fellow unschoolers and unschoolers (as well as parents in general) to tons of resources, fun things to do and helpful tips. The second is to create a welcoming community where the aforementioned parents can hang out, share stories and ideas and generally feel comfortable. I thought we could do a fun meme to get to know each other and so you can get to know me. Plus, who doesn’t love a meme?

Just copy and paste the meme questions below into the comment box and fill them in with your answers. Feel free to ignore anything you don’t want to answer, and to answer as minimally or as fully as you wish. Have fun!
