! !HOLY MOSES! Yes! I did MFW K and yes the fruits of the spirit I think was part of that! Good grief! Can you imagine? I think she was like 5...maybe. Ah...how we mellow. I had a K-teacher friend that told me dd should be writing letters then.MommyInTraining wrote:Thanks Annaz!
I think I remember you from years ago on MFW when we were doing Adventures. I think maybe you were using the K program. I think I remember you talking about trying to get your dd to remember the fruits of the Spirit
Then I saw you on here, on WP, on MFW, and now back here at HOD
What program are you using now?
I don't listen to her anymore. I think it was the public school mentality. (I'm working on changing that, doing pretty good, too.) I'm one of those irritating people who isn't happy unless I try them all then can peacefully go back and choose. I so despise that trait in me. I *almost* had my 2nd one in the car, but we thankfully made it. We walked through the ER doors and she was born 12 minutes later. Yikes! It's so good to see you here again.
I'm pretty sure that it's something I will never have to worry about with my kiddos! I'm one of those who is in labor FOREVER (unless they give me pitocin). Once I was steadily in labor, Grant was 26 hrs, Allison 27 hrs. With Garret I got some extra pitocin & he was only 6 hrs. MUCH easier (even though he was a BIG boy!)! I think I could have Mike drive me to the east coast & I could still make it without having the baby on the way! Kathleen I, along with many others, look forward to hearing about it! That must have been quite the experience for your other 5 children!MommyInTraining wrote:Thanks Tamara!
I hope I have time to share the story soon! That was with 5 other children in the BACK of the minivan...yes, I delivered him in the front seat
Congratulations on your new little one also!
How is your dd liking Bigger?
We were supposed to be doing Beyond and Preparing this past year, but it didn't pan out. I am wondering how putting all 3 of the oldest in Bigger would work for us. We did Bigger for a bit in the past, but, ended up not keeping on with it. I really want to have them all in 1 guide (except maybe the littles in LHTH...big sis is doing that with my 4 yo right now).
You might find it easier to keep them separate if their skills are that far apart. I was trying like crazy to combine, but I found when I put them each in their own guide, I was much happier and school was much easier to do. They were happier too. I think having them at the higher end of the ages for the guide to be of great benefit as well. I know you'll be better able to think it through as baby gets older. He's why I was trying to downsize everything, but now the hormone dust has settled and I'm feeling better, so 3 guides is no biggie anymore! It's getting a nap and a shower that is questionable. LOL Terri you live an exciting life.MommyInTraining wrote: Our little guy was born on Dec. 29 in our minivan
I guess that is really not slowing down at all when you have a baby on the run like that. Congratulations on your new blessing! And welcome back.
