Tim was slightly miffed a few weeks back when some friends had to cancel a visit for the 3rd time. One of the children was sick and I explained to him that when one has a lot of children the likelihood that someone is ill is greatly increased. So when I took Maggie to her very first real ballet class on Friday and 10 minutes later the teacher stuck her head out the door, "Someone peed on the floor," I just knew it was my child. Poor Maggie had gone before we left home, but due to a combination of nerves and sudden shyness just thought that ignoring the urge would make it go away.
The homeschooler's Murphy's Law? Just after you tell another mother that you teach at home is when one of the children will do something embarrassing, rude, or completely out of character, justifying their prejudices.
