Welcome to Learning in Freedom, a blog all about the learning adventures (and mishaps) of the Allen family. My four children are unschooled, following their interests and passions every day and living the lives of their choosing. The purpose of this blog is to share our every day lives (and my not-so-humble opinons) with anyone interested in stopping by. We hope this will give a glimpse of how natural learning unfolds from day to day......
COMPANY OF FRIENDS
When I die, let them judge me by my company of friendsLet them know me as the footprints that I left upon the sandLet them laugh for all the laughterLet them cry for laughter’s endBut when I die, let them judge me by my company of friends
When I die, let them toast to all the things that I believeLet them raise a glass to consciousnessAnd not spill a drop for griefLet the bubbles rise at midnightLet their tongues get light as thievesAnd when I die, let them toast to all the things that I believe
I believe in restless hungerI believe in red balloonsI believe in private thunderIn the end I do believe I believe in inspirationI believe in lightning bugsI believe in slow creationIn the end I do believe I believe in ink on paperI believe in lips on earsI believe what's shared is savoredIn the end I do believe I believe in work on SundaysI believe in raising barnsI believe in wasting MondaysIn the end I do believe I believe in intuitionI believe in being wrongI believe in contradictionIn the end I do believe I believe in living smittenI believe all hearts will mendI believe our book is writtenBy our company of friends

by the time i got to the bottom of all these amazing pix, i was nearly in tears...thank you!! i needed this today!! i feel so blessed that we came together in this big ol' world and have formed such an amazing community!!i love you!
Thank You for your friendship! I am teary and happy. Much love to you.
You are always lovable, even when (especially when?) you're being my evil twin.
All my love, right back atcha darlin'.
i also meant to tell you that the reason i do the slideshows is not because they are so super cool or anything (i actually prefer the still pix) but because it is easier than putting individual pix into the post (and i'm a little lazy when i have tons of pix i want to share)...i mean really does anyone ever talk about what a pain it is to put pix on blogger??!!
Beautiful pix of beautiful people I'm blessed to know! :D
I for one wish I could be there more......same to ya lady.
I'm part of this beautiful blog! Wow! Thank you for your friendship, Ren! Love, Beth
