For the last few years I have been lurking on the Quebec homeschooling Association page and about two months ago I had responded to a message from a mom looking for homeschoolers in the area, I got a PM from one mom, sent her a PM and then didn’t hear back right away and then went on the site a few times after that to see if there had been more responses hadn’t been one yet…
With the vaccation time and summer I had just not went back to the site for a while… So when I went back last week there was two month old PM’s waiting for me, one from the mom that had pm’d me before asking to get together in the near future…one from a mom telling me where she lived (about 2-3 min away from me by car) and asking me how old my kids where …. I answered both of them…
A day or two after I got an e-mail from the second mom… she said she realized soon after my message that we already knew eachother… and then went on to explain that she is a breastfeeding volunteer also (we saw each other once though) and that we had met at the grocery store when she asked me if I was the one that sold wrap and slings…. and then while talking to someone and talking about babywearing stuff she clicked on my user name…
I had found her really cool when I had seen her at the grocery store but had forgotten that she was just starting out as a volunteer…
What is really cool is that she said that homeschooling is already a big part of her life even though her daughter is only 4 1/2… So now I will have someone local that I will be able to talk to about homeschooling and has an interest in babywearing and breastfeeding and has a child about Xavier’s age…
Now, if only her # wasn’t busy each time I tried to call her 🙂
