I realize that its Thursday, which technically makes this Day 4....but I was busy yesterday and did not have a chance to breathe let alone blog. ;0) Any way, I am excited about posting the information about Day 3's question, so here it goes.....
The question is "How do you get out there"? It is from this blog.... http://ihavetosay.typepad.com/randi/2007/08/getting-out-the.html
We live in a very small rural town and though we could stay to ourselves and not participate in lots of things, we choose to get out there and do things. :0) Our town has a great rec. department that has the usual sports and all of our children, at one time or another, have participated with that. They have taken swim lessons, played basketball, soccer, baseball, softball, participated in a week of summer rec., taken outside classes, volunteered at the library, helped out in various ministries at church, and much more!! :0)
I have found that as my children participate we develop friendships, that we might not otherwise have developed. In all honesty our "outside activities" have been very good experiences for the whole family. I have had questions about homeschooling, but that is not the whole focus. We really are all just parents trying to raise our children the best way we know how. |
