Finishing Beyond, and STILL loving it...

Post by brokenopen » Fri Feb 17, 2012 12:06 pm

If you are wondering if any families still love their HOD guides as their year is closing, our answer is yes.
We have been so blessed by Beyond's flexibility and Christ centeredness. The children have loved the books and activites, without exception! We have learned a grown a great deal as a family, and enjoyed ourselves in the process!
I'm thankful that the thoroughness of the guides make homeschooling easy for ME and complete for my children. Our conversations about the Lord have been absolutely priceless, and are bearing fruit!
....we are not tired of Beyond in unit 32!

We are always sad to finish a guide :cry: , but the excitement of the new guide soon replaces our sadness with smiles again. :) Isn't it wonderful!?

We are only in unit 19 of Beyond and I know there is a lot of exciting stuff ahead. I know WE will enjoy it to the end! :D Carrie has made EACH guide in such a way that a person can't help but anticipate what lies in the day ahead. :D :D I'm looking forward to Bigger, but I would NEVER think of missing anything in Beyond to get there! :D We are building on one exciting year after another! :D :D :D

What a fantastic post! :D This time of year there are things that wear me out - the winter, dh traveling, if dc or I have been sick, etc. - but I am NOT weary of school! :D Homeschooling with HOD is great from start to finish every year. It just keeps on picking up speed for a great finale each year - and then, as we sadly put away one guide, we excitedly get out the next, and anticipate the exciting year ahead of us all over again. :D

Thanks for sharing! :D
