And all I can say is WOW! Everything looks amazing. All my kiddos are wading through a sea of books and trying to read them NOW! I love it! And it looks like it is going to be a perfect fit! Yay!

Happy Box Day! Our order for LHFHG and BHFHG came this week as well. I only wish I would have started with HOD my first year! You live and learn. So thankful I waited and prayed this year. The Lord lead me right to HOD. Looking forward to starting this summer :D

So much fun! I just love to sit around and admire the books for HOD and peruse the catalog. I might need some sort of intervention LOL! :D My kiddos said again today how much they enjoy school with HOD and Bigger. The other day we took a handful of pretend lizards, frogs, butterflies etc...and hid them in various places around the downstairs, and they had so much fun taking turns finding them as they were hiding from their 'predators'. What a simple, fun and effective way to reinforce learning about the ways animals, insects etc...protect themselves from predators. We had lots of laughs, and I am still finding snakes and lizards 'hidden' as my kids keep trying to freak me out. My husband came home from work and wondered why the granny smith apples were covered with green frogs and why a red butterfly was on the red rug etc...Of course the kids had a blast telling him about their science fun and all of the laughs they had doing it as well as playing 'tricks' on mommy with strategically placed fake snakes....This is not only learning but GREAT memory making! Enjoy Bigger, we have loved it. It has blessed our home so much. :)

What fun! I am sure they will want to play again...and again...and again.

Oh! Hooray! :D I'm thrilled you have your books in hand! We're about 7 weeks away from finishing Bigger with my third son, and I have to tell you that I cannot believe the gains he has made while doing this particular guide. :D He is really maturing in so many areas. :D I was sure he'd never be ready for Preparing Hearts, but he most definitely is ready! :D I pray Bigger will bless your family as much as it has blessed mine! :D

Blessings,
Carrie
