It's good to be home. But it's bittersweet in so many ways. There are many things we miss about Miami but first and foremost is the amazing community of homeschoolers that we were so lucky to fall in with. Not long after we got to Miami we discovered the Global Field Academy and the families there welcomed us in with open arms. Not just open arms, open hearts, open minds and lots of love.
The girls made friends for a lifetime. Field trips and adventures, play dates and incredible new experiences. Every moment bolstered their confidence and made us fall in love with our fellow humans again and again.
It was fun to watch our country girls fall in so easily with these city kids and see these city kids completely embrace our country girls. It was like they couldn't get enough of each other. They showed us how to dance, we showed them how to knit. And when we left there were many tears (mine too) and promises to make visits again both here and there. We truly intend to keep these friendships alive.
Thank you GFA for being our light in the storm, you don't know how much it meant to us. We miss you all.
