Just trying to share the love... Thanks to Imperfect Genius for starting the Homeschool MeMe. Feel free to add your to comments too, or throw it on your blog. 
1) What country/region/state do you live in? Florida, USA
2) How long have you been homeschooling? Just getting started, old pro or somewhere in between? Since June 7, 2000 - the day Syd was born. 
OK, we officially decided to homeschool when she was 3 - so it's been a bit more than 3 years.
3) Write a little something about your family. Ages? Stages? Tom and I have been married for almost 16 years, but together for 22. We waited until 10 years of marriage to have a baby so that I could be a SAHM and *WE* could raise her. Syd is our only, and is 6 years old ~ smart as a whip and, thus far, still in love with learning...and her parents.
4) Share some good homeschooling advice you’ve run across. Don't try to replicate school at home. If school doesn't work, why would you want to bring it home?
5) Tell us something you’re passionate about (besides your family and homeschooling, those are givens!). I am passionate about freedom of and from religion. Nothing gets me cranky faster than some fundamentalist ANYTHING trying to change the world to follow their faith.
6) If you could take the ultimate field trip, where would you go and why? I would love to go on a field trip to Europe and immerse myself in the rich art, architecture, and literature of the ages. Specifically, I would love to visit Paris, London, and Rome.
7) What is a resource you can’t do without? Books. Thousands and thousands of books. OK, if it supposed to be specific - how about the library?
How do you homeschool? Classical, Charlotte Mason, Waldorf, Unschooling, Eclectic? Eclectic unschooler with some basic required skills
9) Share a website or two that you visit often - can be your favorite blogger or a curriculum supplier, just any sites you really like. Rainbow Resource, Discovery Puzzle Maker, Homeschool Reviews, Mindware, Peanut Allergy.com
10) Tell us about one of your favorite projects/activities/trips you’ve had in the past few months. One of my favorite things has been Sydney's Summer Reading program that we devised. For every 100 pages she reads, she gets to pick something great. I have had SUCH joy just sitting and listening to her sweet voice read the words with adorable tone and inflection - it has absolutely been one of my favorite things in homeschooling yet.
11) What is a current/previous homeschooling challenge you’ve faced? In the past we were challenged because Sydney was entranced with the idea of going to school. When you homeschool from the beginning, kids only know the romantic vision of school days that they have been fed by the media. She is passed that now, but it was difficult to deal with about a year or two ago.
12) Share an accomplishment, something about you or your children. Come on, brag about it! My daughter can READ! I taught her letter sounds by loosely following Letter of the Week and then we tackled sight words, word blends, etc. by using games and manipulatives I found in The Mailbox. She was reading fluently by the time she was 5 and, months before she even turned 6, she could read at the 4th grade level. I told myself when we started this homeschool journey that if I could just teach her to read, I would feel confident and be able to teach her anything. Of course, along the way, I discovered that the best way is not to "teach," but to stand out of the way and let them learn.
13) What are you looking forward to over the coming year? I am looking forward to living and learning with my family. We have 2 babies (cousins) on the way, and I look forward to their arrival and thank our homeschooling lifestyle for affording us the opportunity to enjoy the time. I am also looking forward to reading more of the classics aloud to Sydney. We are just finishing up Heidi and I can't wait to start Swiss Family Robinson, Little Women, Anne of Green Gables, etc.
14) Name three things you like doing in the summer with your family. SWIMMING! SWIMMING! SWIMMING!
15) Have a favorite homeschooling quote? Share it here. I have to say that one of my favorites I actually first saw on Steph's blog Throwing Marshmallows... "Learning can only happen when a child is interested. If he’s not interested it’s like throwing marshmallows at his head and calling it eating."
Mood : amused

But, we planned this. I am grateful for this. Though, occassionally, I need the reminder that we are on the right path. In fact, I loathe the alternate path because I now see it as an American consumerism abyss propagated by the schooling of our children. (But that's a whole other blog post.
