Birthday Fun

We went to TN to celebrate a bunch of May unschooler birthdays. A joint birthday party for 5 fabulous unschoolers. How could it get any better? We love seeing lots of friends and reconnecting with a group that is like extended family. Spending time with friends has become pretty important in the kids' lives. As unschoolers, it's our job to help the kids get what they need. Right now, it seems being with other kids is tres importante, so that's what I'm trying to incorporate into our lives. It is a balance though. Money, time, differing kids' needs. Fortunately, gatherings like this met all our needs and filled us up until the next time.
