Roundup: The Latest from the Parenting Blogosphere Week of 7.20.09

Alice, over at Finslippy, writes what many of us already know -- sometimes having time to take a shower really is a luxury. Oh long shower, how we've missed you!

What else is abuzz in the Parenting blogosphere? Homeschooling, tea drinking, roller blading dad and Affirmative Action.

• Are you thinking about homeschooling and looking to start this fall? Mosey on over to The Pioneer Woman's Web site for a great collection of posts that will help you on your way.

• Veronica, over at Viva La Feminista discusses her daughter and Affirmative Action's Next Generation.

• Drinking more tea will save the world! Don't believe us? Then visit Daddy, Papa and me and read Emma's take on drinking more tea.

• "I recently got the Roller blades because I have a death wish. Hurtling down an incline with only one small piece of black rubber to slow you own is my idea of a good time. I also figured that it would help me lose some weight, as the body indeed weighs less when it is missing a limb or a chunk of torso or a head." Read the rest over at Dorky Dad.
