What a fantastic list! I also love the way your blog looks now. I don't know if it's just me, but the words run in to the polka-dotty part on the left and it's hard to read :( Is that how it's supposed to be? Maybe this stupid work computer messes up the look of everyone's blogs!

I love your blog!! Very neat colors and art work. You are real and honest and funny. I like that!

By the way I have a friend who is an unschooler who had a wonderful VBAC. Read Laura Shanley's website (google her). She's awesome!

Have fun on your journey!!
