Gotta admit, I’m not at all a huge fan of playdates or any other mega preplanned kid romps—but, how i love, just love the sleepover. It has been such an unexpected and beautiful part of a nice helping hand….that and trades. LOVE trades my friend. I’m just so happy to have found this groove of really experiencing the more the merrier- happier kids, happier parents, AND there are spontaneous pay backs! Like, we really, really enjoy having your kids here and i really enjoy having my kids there. It’s been so nice that i just don’t even keep track of who had who for how long and whos turn it is next—
It really is my ultimate easy breezy– because I find myself just wanting to really watch the kids being together…i can just really sink into their world as a bystander, and cook dinner, and have a moment of breathing- very simple something that’s working really well in my world.
many kids====total ease, for me.
reminding me of THE village as you hear about…and how it feels really sweetly good and real for me.
