The stereotypes about homeschooling are pretty intense for a country that doesn't prioritize or fund education.

One of my kids won a math contest and one won a coloring contest. It’s a good week!

A beautiful joke my nephew told me: How many llamas can you catch before the ghost gets you?

Answer: YOUR MOM!

I so badly want a world where I don’t feel like I have to homeschool. It’d be nice to just want to.

I love hearing my teen say she isn't interested in "party" schools. This girl has her eye on the prize.

Working with other people is hard for independent folks, but you have to care about other people's perspectives. If you don't you might end up president.

TPUSA (Charlie Kirk’s Christian extremist student org) & Summit Christian Academy in Lee’s Summit, Missouri are hosting a public event with Riley Gaines. Gaines is known for getting paid to spread anti-trans hate across the country.

It’d be a shame if all the spots got filled 😉 tinyurl.com/454ncvud

One time I got in trouble at school for calling a boy a "prick." I didn't know what that word meant at the time. Now I know I used it correctly so that teacher owes me an apology.

I spent my birthday in beautiful weather, with beautiful people. I am a fortunate soul.

My youngest says things like "you're a pretend mom," and then I get really reflective and start to agree with him.

My 5yo: “I see a medium-sized tree! I’m going to look for more medium-sized trees!”

He said he’s never seen one so medium-sized before 😂

I wrote another video for CardFool. Had a lot of fun making it with coworkers.

If you want to be talked at all day—ask my 13yo about aircraft carriers.

It’s hard to be mad at my kids when their worst behavior isn’t as bad as the President of the United States’ best behavior.

My 5yo son is pretending to be a zombie and walking around the house going "brrrread! brrread!" He's the most relatable zombie I've ever seen.

My 5yo loudly muttered from his room that "mom should be in jail" after I told him no more tablet time.

The asteroid that's heading for earth can just turn around and go home. Earthlings happily build bombs big enough to annihilate our own cities thank you very much.

I once made a set of Superwoman aprons for a bachelorette party in Australia. I sometimes wonder how my babies are doing and am relieved they have universal healthcare.

If you're looking for a little nerdy fun in Kansas City, I will be at the Belton library this saturday with copies of SCREAMLAND and the BADDEST DAD JOKES AND CARTOONS. Looks like it should be a fun, chill way to kick off the comic book convention season!
