I did take my knitting bag... really I did.
But somehow the festival spirit took over and I picked up my needles only once.
HesFes (Home Educators Summer Festival)
It's a family festival safe and loving, welcoming to all. It's hard to describe what it means to us, a week of freedom and acceptance with folk who understand home education because they are on the same journey.
For one glorious week I forgot my age and had a fantastic time with my daughter and our amazing and wonderful friends.
We had a joyful week with early morning cuppas
And beautiful skies.
Emma and I made rag rugged brooches together in a workshop
All ages working together, to make and create...
Music...
And laughter...
A picnic hamper for a table, held everything I needed for a relaxing week. candles, incense and insect anti -bite cream!
The last evening we stayed up till dawn.
Emma never made it into bed at all!!!
