Just a few minutes this morning but I have put off posting far too long. Each night, I go to bed composing the post in my mind and just never sit down here to write it.
Last week, I think, I stumbled across this link on several unschooling blogs:
50 Eye Opening Unschooling Blogs
Number 43, under the subtitle of untraditional families, is a blog ... Loving, Living, Learning and my first thought was that somewhere else out there had my blog title! Then I clicked on the link and realized that it is my blog!
Ok, that's interesting. We are listed on an unschooling blog list as an untraditional family. All I can think is labels, labels, labels and none of them really fit or capture who we really are. Maybe untraditional is the best label for us but I sort of like unconventional better, I think.
I have been carrying this thought around in my head for weeks ever since I read Tammy's post: I am Radical but definitely not a Radical Unschooler; I'm not even an Unschooler. Yes and Amen, Tammy!
Now I am realizing that I am running out of time this morning and there is still so much more that I want to say? Do I just save the draft and come back to it, knowing that I might not? Writing this little bit may have released the pressure enough. If I publish it though, I may be more motivated to get back here tonight and really finish this post. I don't want to leave it hanging.
Don't you just love listening in on the conversations that are happening in my head while I am writing?
I'll be back tonight ....
