Homeschool Community

For every picture I take of my girls with their friends, there's a group of moms behind the camera. 

And those women are my best friends. 

I'm grateful that I know and love the women who are raising my kids' best friends. 

And I'm grateful I get to know and love my kids' friends.

We all, kids and grown ups, get together and banter and laugh. 

And then we split into groups of grown ups and teens and banter and laugh with people in our age group. 

And then we come back together and banter and laugh.  

And then we all go home with our own kids and we banter and laugh in the car on the way home. 

I don't know how it is for women raising girls in a regular school setting. 

Do you get to know the parents of the kids your kids are friends with?

In a homeschool setting, we get to build an amazing community of interwoven generations and conversations and laughter. 

And memories. 

For every picture like this, I remember standing should to shoulder with my dearest friends.
