Aren't the ladies on the board so uplifting and encouraging! We are blessed to have a family-tone to the board because of all of you wonderful moms that pour yourselves into making other moms feel welcome.
Hi Christa! Isn't Mary wonderful? She is a person that just "lights" up the world with her faith! I agree with you about the board here - what a joy it is to gather here with other encouraging HOD moms.granolamom6 wrote:Ever since my dear friend Mary started investigating HOD, I have been coming to the board and reading and learning.
I have to say that the friendliness of the people here would be enough to get me interested in HOD! But, the curriculum stands on its own, and so, today, I will be starting LHFHG with my 6 year old dd and continuing LHTH with my 3 year old dd.
I also plan on purchasing PHFHG when it is released to use with my 12 year old ds and my 10 year old dd together.
Thank you for drawing me out of "lurkdom"
Hi Ronda! I'm so glad you introduced yourself, and we're doing Bigger and DITHOR right now. I think you'll love doing these programs. I've done Little Hands now several times, and I also think you'd enjoy that too. It always helped me get in some one-on-one time with the little one before heading off to the older one(s).Ronda wrote:Not sure if I'm considered a lurker or not, but I haven't posted in awhile, so I guess I'll jump in here. We will be starting Bigger Hearts & DITHOR next fall and I'm considering Little Hands for my 5 yo ds. I do read the posts nearly everyday, but usually don't reply much since I don't have any experience with HOD yet.
Maybe you could chime in on the lighthearted things (i.e. Did you read the Mel's Diner thread? 
), or even on the prayer requests. Also, I see you have a 21 yo and a 16 yo... Ronda, I think I could learn a LOT from you! Anyway, however you do it, be sure to hang up your lurker shoes and jump in whenever you can! So glad you're here!Hi Marsha! Isn't that a super feeling to be able to "get it all done"?!? I remember various past experiences I've had with other programs when I was tense about the day from the moment my eyes opened, still lying in bed waking up!!! It's nice to start each day stress-free and feeling like we can actually finish everything we need to. I'm so glad you introduced yourself here, and it'll be great to get to know you more!Marsha wrote:I have 6 children, ages 11, 8, 7, 4 (almost 5), 2, and 4 months. We just started using Bigger for the oldest 3 and I bought Little Hearts to use with my almost 5 year old and Little Hands to use with my 2 year old. I am very pleased with this curriculum. I feel like I can actually get all of it done.
Glad to meet you Ronda and Marsha!
