Wow, Spunky! Did I count 50 entrires? Great idea! You did a lot of work, thanks! I look forward to not only reading these posts, but all the new blogs. God Bless.
WOW... I'm never going to get anything done today, I have too much to read now!
Okay... better go make a pot of coffee, looks like I'll be busy for a while. Thank you SO much for doing this, alot of families are going to be so blessed by this.
OH WOW! This is *awesome*!
Oh, I just checked - the link for Homeschooling Babies & Toddlers should be http://atypicalife.net/blog/?p=366
You must be bug-eyed at this point. 
Great job! I am so excited to get started!
Are offline conventions this much fun? I've never been but I think this will be hard to beat.
This is so great! I'm going to be here all day!
Andrea the link should be fixed now. Sorry about that.
Enjoy
Spunky!!! I think this may officially push you into "SuperMom" status!! Start checking your chest for the faint outline of the "S" that will show up.
Wow what an event! The only thing I missed was lunch served to my Littles, so that I could continue reading. Think you could add this in next year?
Well done, you!!
Now, go drink some java, cause I KNOW you had to be up for days straight!!
Blessings,
Dawn
WOW, girlfriend!!!!!
This was a LOT of work!!!!!!!!!
Great job.
I'll Fed-Ex you a mocha (with four espresso shots in it) from Alaska.
Love,

How exciting and wonderful...thanks for putting this together, Spunk! You and Kristin are awesome.
Woohoo! I'm having so much fun. Thanks for doing this!
This is fabulous!!!!
Good for you!
And good for us :o)
*Wow* I am just in awe. You did a fabulous job!!
Wow! I've been taking a short blogging break to finish up our hs year. I am so glad to have found your "conference" through Poppins! I'm going to hide this weekend and read!
This is such a great idea... I'm off to promote on my blog!!
What a GREAT idea and you've done a GREAT job pulling it off. thank you. No pressure, but... this could be an annual event.
WOW...you got more entries than expected...more than the Evangelical Outpost Spymposium (and I could be wrong, but I know you're close). All the posts were great! Great job!
Thank you for putting your time and energy into the Homeschool Convention! I have read some entries, but not all, I hope to get some time this weekend for more!
Thanks again!
Oh, I'm so sorry I was too burned out with writing to participate! I hope you'll have another next year!
All I can say is WOW! Great job. I have been having so much fun perusing the entries- and learning so much. Thank you for all the hard work!
Thank you. This was a terrific idea.
Hello Spunky! I'm Brandy -- known in parts of blogland as Lady4Jesus. Came here through Kristen (Walking Circumspectly blog). My goodness! Looks like I have lots of reading to do now throughout the rest of the weekend and into next week. Can't wait to dig in. It's a wonderful, wonderful idea! Just wanted to take the time to thank you for putting forth such an outstanding effort to get this all together!
(we're not homeschooling just yet ... our daughter is only 17 months old .... but we will be, so I'm always on the hunt for stuff to read on it lol).
Blessings to you and yours!
Brandy
Just wanted to add my praise for all your hard work. I just came across your site on the Amy's Humble Musings site. Looks like I've have many days of some great reads.
Keep up the good work!
God Bless
Thanks, Spunky!
The link for the Keynote Address was not working for me, I think this is it: http://www.classicalchild.com/

I would add that you can get phonics materials free from Don Potters Education Page: http://www.donpotter.net/ed.htm. And, www.starfall.com is another good free way to practice phonics.
I would, however, discourage the use of sight words and sight word bingo. Read the Article on Don Potter's Page, "Can Dyslexia Be Artificially Induced in School? Yes, Says Researcher Edward Miller." For a better way to teach sight words, find out how to sound out all but 2 of the 220 most commonly taught Dolch sight words on my website: http://www.thephonicspage.org/
On...sightwords.html
I've tutored too many children harmed by whole word methods and poor phonics programs with too many sight words. It's far better to do it right the first time than to have to do remedial training later.
Wow! I know it' like 3 years later - but I'm always a little late - and I just found this. Don't ask me how.
This is so cool! Are you going to do it again? What a great idea. Thank you for doing this! Blessings, Dee
