I know I'm reading this post a bit late, but WOW 1 year on Steemit! Congratulations, it seems like you definitely made the most of it! I am still pretty new here, but am definitely coming to very similar conclusions as you about Steemit. I can only imagine where I'll be on my Steemit journey in a year though!

I home educate as well, and we unschool in many ways. So it's great and very inspiring to see someone like you gain so much recognition here on Steemit. Thank you for all the value you've given to this community, I will definitely read up on your previous posts :)
