Starting Over

If you knew you only had a year more with that child, what would you expose him to? Where would you go? What would you eat? What would you watch? What would you do? 

If you had only ONE year—and then it was all over, what would you do? Four seasons. Twelve months. 365 days. 

Do that THIS year. And the next. 

That's how unschooling works. By living life as if it were an adventure. As if you only had a limited amount of time with that child. Because that's the way it IS.

We've made the move back to Texas and I'm unpacking all our stuff. I've been feeling unsure of how to do unschooling, afraid I'll do it wrong. Then I read the above quote from Kelly and I feel like it's simple. Life truly IS an adventure, and as long as I keep that in mind, we're headed down the right path. 

I've found some unschooling groups in my area, and am hoping to be able to get together with some unschooling families soon. I think it will be helpful to see how it's working for others and get some ideas of things that are available for us to explore in the Dallas area. I know there's a lot for us to do....now we just need to get started!
