*ahem* Attention, please!
I am pleased to announce that with the inception of the blog currently known as Elaienar's Blog I have entered the worthy ranks of parents-of-bloggers.

I would also like to point out two new blogs by fellow Middle Earth dwellers, The Road Goes Ever On And On, and her sister Shieldmaiden. I have also recently learned that my daughter's Japanese penpal Miwaza, has a blog. It is a pleasure witnessing this influx of young, reformed, homeschooling bloggers. I tell ya, this is a great world!
