:D We did our first day of Bigger today. Now, I know that I have "tried" HOD in the past, but today has been a real winner! :D In the past, I guess ds was just not ready for Bigger. Well, it's a great fit now. I can't remember the last time ds and I have got history and science done in the same day. We did today!

Now, ds says that he has "read all day". :roll: :lol: He has yet to admit that anything involving "school" is fun. :roll: He has done more reading today and it's been good for him too! Everything we did today has been so much more doable. I just wanted to share our first day with Bigger and let everyone know how great today has been.

That sounds wonderful! So glad you had a good day with Bigger. We are using it as well, and the boys are enjoying it too. They are reading all day long, and I love it! They are actually loving it too! Thanks for sharing about your day. Bless you this year!

Yay! I'm so glad that you and your ds had such a wonderful day even if he is a bit reluctant to admit it. :wink: Bigger is such a wonderful program. You have many amazing days ahead! :D

Thanks Patty and Tina! :D
I am looking forward to more days like this. I think ds will loosen up soon. He's done way too many textbooks and non-fun stuff in the past. Plus, I've been pushy with him previously. I know things are gonna liven up. I feel it!
