Wow - so much has happened these last couple months. We left the beautiful state of Ct and all our wonderful,amazing friends behind. Headed to Florida where my awesome parents let us stay with them while Tony looked for a job. Not 1 and 1/2 weeks after we left CT he landed a great job in Augusta,GA. We were all pleasantly surprised to say the least. Being unemployed for a year was taking its toll on everyone and we were not sure what was going to happen to our little family. Tony went ahead of us to GA and for the past month had been commuting back down to Florida on the weekends. After searching he found us a cute little house to rent just outside Augusta (more on that in the next post), we packed up again this time saying goodbye to my awesome family and wonderful friends to head to an unkown place.
In Florida we were lucky to be a part of a Waldorf co-op that met 2x a week. We learned some new songs, made blackboards and knitting needles, learned the recorder and did some watercolor paintings. We were also lucky to take part in some programs at the local Waldorf school that only goes up to K. They offer a first grade Fairy Ring" that I dropped Ryan off at on Thursday and Friday. It was wonderful to see him take to it so well. His teacher had good things to say - his teacher by the way was his playgroup leader when he was 2 and is also a part of the co-op. We had such a wonderful community our short time there. Needless to say it was most difficult to leave it all behind to head to an area where there are no Waldorf schools in site. Finding homeschool groups has been a challenge here. I will keep my eyes out and in the meantime look forward to heading back down to Florida to see my parents and attend the Waldorf festivals that are so important to me.
I will always have my little sanctuary though - well at least as long as my parents do not sell their little condo on the beach:
Good bye Florida - Hello Georgia.
