Hello my fellow HODies!   
 
We are totally loving HOD over here!  I look forward to each new day (the kids like it too!) & I actually have time(I really love to!) to look over our next day's schedule!  I always wanted to do that in the past & I would have to force myself to or just wing it the next day & then feel overwhelmed.  With HOD, it is like a breath of fresh air.  Mama Mary said once (forgive me for my mis quote!) 

 that she feels completely full with the chunks of work she does with the kids.  I totally agree.  I feel like we do the perfect amount of work each day & it is very well balanced & full.  Who new that when you stick to something & work on it bit by bit each day that you really learn something!!   

 I was always trying to do too much & never felt like I did enough.  I never felt like we were on track...always behind & leaving stuff out.   We were burning out!  I never dreamed I could feel this good about a curriculum.  HOD is my curriculum heaven.....I tell everyone about it!  I cannot wait to use all the programs as my younger 2 become ready to do school.  I am also looking forward to using the next program Carrie is writing
So, last week we finished up Unit 3 in Preparing.  We just have to do the cave art painting.  We were saving that for Friday but it didn't happen cause I was doing the summer/winter clothes switch.  

 We will do the painting tomorrow.  My girls are doing awesome with their memory verses.  I am very pleased with all of their work so far.  The fact that we have been doing ALL of the crafts & art work & experiments says A LOT for us!!  It is ALL just so doable!!  Bless you Carrie!!! Praying for your continued annointing in all your curriculum endeavors!
I feel so very blessed.  
I am looking forward to posting more eack week!  Love reading & praying for everyone who writes in for prayer.
I can't wait to post some pictures of my dc art work & stuff.....just have to figure it out!   
 
Blessings & Hugs!!
