Love that ...I will always parent as a homeschooler! Love that you recognize it in us. I did homeschool my oldest until he was seven. We were very involved in our local homeschooling community, hosted science summer camps, and helped create a homeschool cooperative. When I recognized that his needs were shifting, I expanded my heart and opened myself to a small and wonderful little school that fit him perfectly. He stayed there until this year! His middle school graduating class could be counted on two hands. My daughter is there now and it has become a huge part of our community that I wouldn't trade, but I do miss homeschooling and know that I always will. Our home library is stocked and stacked as yours probably is. Our environment is set up for optimal exploration. Early childhood educations is thick in my blood.<br /><br />Thank you Melissa for your sweet insight on my mothering. Homeschooling can also be a state of mind and a way of loving our children's process.mayalunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06701015028881253692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777506989220366832.post-51412693632976862402012-08-25T13:27:19.996-04:002012-08-25T13:27:19.996-04:00thank you!

She's done a wonderful job and had the best help (yay for mothers and grandmothers!), and I love her story too. (I secretly want a fox friend myself.) I did not have this kind of childhood. My parents were too busy working and my grandparents preferred to see us only occasionally and plugged us into the tv when we were there. I don't want that for my children and you've been one of my inspirations. Thank you!Cinnamonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09120990117769228244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777506989220366832.post-54311448342573506482012-08-25T09:49:56.771-04:002012-08-25T09:49:56.771-04:00I am constantly amazed that you don't homescho...I am constantly amazed that you don't homeschool. The synergy in your family is amazing and I think that homeschooling would make it even more so. Homeschooling isn't for everyone and I don't mean that you need to homeschool to be a close knit family. I am having a hard time explaining what I mean. I read so many homeschool blogs, and so much of what you post about is so homeschool-ish that I have to keep reminding myself that you are not homeschoolers. <br />You enrich the lives of your children in ways that not every parent does. I always go away from your blog posts with a happier heart. Thanks for sharing you with us.Melissa Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01506768105367855476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777506989220366832.post-26481238161327289862012-08-24T20:03:16.815-04:002012-08-24T20:03:16.815-04:00Oh this is so incredibly sweet- such a beautiful, ...Oh this is so incredibly sweet- such a beautiful, perfect tipi!

As a child we built tipi's at my grandparents cabin every summer. My grandpa would hand strip pine tree poles for us that we used year to year. Using every spare blanket and sheet available we set up "camp" and spent hours pretending, letting our imaginations run. What treasured times!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03035944430893227057noreply@blogger.com
