Gaming Group: Growing and Shrinking.

Our gaming group has grown to a healthy size over the past year. Several new homeschooling families moved into the area and a few of them have joined us and become regulars.

I've taken to calling S our teen liaison, though, driving home the other night after an eight hour marathon of glass and fire, I decided I could call her a founding member and declared her the president of our gaming club.

Today we had the unexpected news that one of our families is putting their kids in school starting Monday. They were lifelong homeschoolers, but the Dad suddenly decided they should try school. I'm very disappointed. The Mom is secretly disappointed, but she's going along with it and trying to stay positive for her two. We did exchange numbers and stayed an extra hour, because S chose this particular day to regale the dragon crazy girl of the pair with stories of her dragon creations, right down to their genetics.

Positive, the Mom is fully ready to yank the kids out if it goes horribly wrong. Other positive, we have tentative plans to meet up and hang out at a time conducive to a school schedule. So we'll see.
