I never have time to post here, or check the message board very often but I LOVE the fact that it is here and I can go anytime of day to research my questions, get encouragement or just giggle at all the same exact situations I've experienced!! So basically I'm just a "creeper" lol :lol: , this pre...

100% in agreement w/ you here too! Amen, amen, and AMEN!! I don't get to post on here very much but couldn't pass this opportunity up

The conclusion that I drew when we did this a couple of months ago was that the ice cube in the dish cloth would melt faster than the one in the mitten/wool skarf --the reason being that thicker clothing insulates better than thinner clothing keeping the core temperature more constant. The temperatu...

I know it's sticking with them, too, because this evening we were under a tornado watch and my 6 yr old said to me, "Mom! It's just like our poem, "The Storm!" That is so neat, isn't it? We had a similar experience a couple of months ago when my dd started Beyond. We had just read "The Storm" and t...

My hubby is also traveling on business in Alexandria, VA. He said they could feel it in the building he was in. For a moment no one knew what was happening and he wondered if it was a tornado but when he looked outside it was sunny and clear. Then they finally realized it was an earthquake. There wa...

:D :D :D Oh, I can't tell you how your post warms my heart! This is our 1st year w/ HOD using Beyond and Preparing and it's so good to know that we have so much more to look forward to in the years to come! Your "contraband" statement made me giggle --that is too funny. What a blessing of a discipli...

Great! Thanks, Leah

For those of you whose dc have read "The Mystery of Pelican Cove" (included in the DITHOR Lev. 3 book pack), is it nessessary to read the previously written book, "The Treasure of Pelican Cove" first in order for the sequel to not be confusing? Thanks!

Woo hoo!!! I am so excited for you! Look how cute they are looking at all their new books --they're completely immersed in them! Hope you have a fantastic year

Thanks again for all of the encouragement, ladies :D The past couple of days have been bliss since I have finally put this concern out of my mind and am able to completely enjoy the time I get to spend with my daughter in this program. I also wanted to respond to this statement from Becky: Perhaps w...

Ok, so now I'm officially doing the " HaPpY DaNcE " :lol: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Thank you all for your words of affirmation. I just feel so unspeakably blessed that the Lord lead me to HoD and to all of you wonderful, loving, godly sisters in Christ. No more worries here...just going to rela...

Thank you, Holly! This is the cake topper

Kim and Kelly, thank you so much :D In my heart I knew this already, I just needed some reassurance. After so many years of trudging through every homeschool day, just trying to get through the work, It's hard to believe that homeschooling could and "should" be this easy and fun! I love this time wi...

Sometimes I think I must be addicted to stress to even be posting this. :roll: :lol: We are LOVING Beyond so much and never in our 6 yrs of homeschooling have I felt such peace and ease throughout the day with a curriculum. My dd -8.5 (9 in Dec.) and in the 3rd grade placed in Beyond. We tried Bigge...

I made mine on Microsoft Word. Here's a pic...
