Vote for Spunky!

Many of you may have already heard that my mom, Spunky Homeschool has retired her blog. While this news has been sudden and somewhat disappointing, I think my mom made a good decision. However, just after announcing her retirement, she found out that she was a finalist in the Education blog category in the Wizbang Blog Awards (think the Oscars for blogs). I think the we should send her off with a "bang" by voting for her.

Her two top contenders are very strong supporters of elite education and look down upon the "commoners" who homeschool. IvyGate is a gossip blog of the elite Ivy League Colleges, and the other is a college professor at Penn State. Here's the comment by the Professor on the Ivy Gates blog,

"The important thing is that IvyGate and I crush the homeschoolers."

(There were others, but none were worth repeating.)

This isn't a about a "win" for Spunky Homeschool, but a win for homeschooling and particularly stay-at-home moms. For all these reasons, I'd like to encourage all of our readers, particularly you homeschoolers, to vote for my mom, SpunkyHomeschool. You, your family, friends, e-loops, and message board buddies are allowed to vote once a day until 11:59PM (EST) on December 15th.
