Hi, gsanmb! :) I loved your post on the anti-semitism thread. It complemented mine very nicely. :) Overall, I was really pretty impressed that the conversation stayed very, very civil. I'm on an Ethiopian adoption group where the conversations relating to religion are NOT civil. Anyway... you wrote you knew me from another board, but I don't recognize your screen name. So... who are you?? :)

My name's Kerith and we live in Portland, OR (but hoping to move soon; DH has an interview in Savannah, GA, so we'll see!). My kids are 6, 4, 3, and 2 and we love our learning-at-home lifestyle. We're the only Jews doing it around here. Oh, except, a family of 11 just moved here from Israel to start a chicken/cheese/dairy farm and reportedly they homeschool, but we haven't met them yet!

Anyway... hope you had a lovely shabbos and I look forward to hearing more.
