I'm just about to head to a dear friend's house, for our monthly Homeschool Moms Night Out.  This month our theme is Knitting and Felting, so one of the Moms who is gifted in this area is going to be teaching us some of the tricks and techniques. She put together wonderful "knitting kits" for those of us who are just beginning. Isn't that sweet?

Then afterwards, if all works out, we will be heading out back to have a campfire.  Our hostess lives in a log cabin on several acres of land, so it is the perfect spot for a get-away. That just sounds so relaxing to me right now after the crazy hectic weeks we have had.  This group started out of a basic need I had for Godly, quality, authentic relationships with other Homeschool Mom's, and little did I know just how many other moms were desiring the same.  It is beautiful to see women getting "real" and vulnerable with one another, and taking off the masks.  My prayer is this will be a wonderful place of refuge for the Mom's that need true friendship, rejuvenation, safety and support so they can get refilled and ready for the month ahead .  Last month we met at a local restaurant and got all dressed up, and this month we are "kicken it chill" by dressing down, knitting and doing smores.  I was really tempted to take advantage of the whole "dress down" thing and go without make-up, but I didn't want to scare the ladies - LOL.  Hey, I am all for relaxin, but there has to be boundaries somewhere . . . ROFL.

For the ladies who couldn't make it tonight, we will miss you and hope to see you again next month (or at one of the upcoming field trips). ((HUGS)) and many, many blessings . . .
