Have had a very mellow, supportive, informative evening with 6 fab home educating mothers (& two gorgeous baby boys) tonight.
We talked about the LiTTle Conference as 3 of us, well, 4 including The Daddy One, were there last week and about siblings fighting and sibling rivalry and shouting and autonomous learning to read and dealing with unsupportive partners, boys and aggression and helping our children deal with frustration and experiences of withdrawing children from school and loosing contact with people who are scared of home ed.
My thought continues to be
"Your children do not hear what you say: they watch what you do."
One of the Mums bought some lush brownies and there were raspberries from the garden and raspberry lemonade. Yum!
Baby Small fell asleep on my lap after relishing in having some babies to play with and The Big Smalls watched a Harry Potter film with The Daddy One.
In some small way we are doing a very big thing.
If I could make one small amendment it would be that we all lived closer.
