I am relatively new to this list -- I joined after attending the Live and
Learn conference. I have to say that this conference was really altering to me
and _my family_ (mip://02344400/my%20family) . We have always felt
uncomfortable in our local homeschooling groups, and truthfully didn't quite
understand why. I must say that after a day at the conference we all just started
feeling like we had found home. My daughter felt totally comfortable, and
commented that everyone she met was different, and it was okay! They were not
necessarily different like her, but different like themselves. So after trying to
figure out what type of learners we are, we have learned that we are much more
in tune with unschoolers. Why has it taken us so long? I am learning so much
from this list, and I am questioning so much about myself as a parent. And I
agree with needing to be around people who inspire me. Thank you!

This was so nice to read!
I'm glad you made it to the conference----and I'm glad you're here!
