For the month of November Our Homeschool Reviews will be participating in a Gratitude Challenge hosted by Brenda at Garden of Learning. For each day, I'll post about something I am thankful for.
Today I am thankful for...Friends!! I am very thankful to have several friends who I can talk to, laugh with, and confide in.
Before having our daughter, I pretty much kept to myself. At work I didn't socialize too much, ate lunch in the break room, and certainly didn't go out after work. It was just my husband, myself, and our families.
Then I became a stay at home mom. It wasn't until after the first year when I realized I needed to start getting her out more. I had to...socialize...lol! Since then, through playdates, birthday parties, activities, and mom groups, I have made some wonderful friends...hopefully lifelong friends!!

But.. but.. aren't homeschooling families locked inside and unsocialized? LOL!
I'm glad you have met new friends. It's nice to be able to share the journey with people who can support and understand us.
Once a month our homeschool moms get together and go out for a dinner/lunch/breakfast (without the kiddos). I always look forward to this! We always have so much to chat about :) I also love getting together with families and watching our kids play with their friends.
Have a happy Thanksgiving and thank you for sharing your post with the Thankful Hearts Blog Hop!
