I was able to go the MACHE homeschool convention in MN this weekend. My first stop on Thursday morning was the HOD booth. Carrie was very gracious in giving me a good chunk of time talking to me. I think I even prevented her from eating her breakfast (sorry ). She was such an encouragement to me! I walked away with a bagful of books (for Bigger) and a renewed spirit that I can do this ("this" being homeschool). What a wonderful treasure she is! She is still in the thick of it just as we are, wiping runny noses, dealing bickering children and wondering why if you put two socks in the washer only one comes out . I'm thankful for the time she spends responding to questions on this board and writing new books. Thank you for your ministry, Carrie!

Jenny - how awesome that you got to meet Carrie and get that extra enthusiasm for homeschooling!!!

I am frequently amazed at the time Carrie finds for us here on this board.I have known other places where this is not the case.Im gald you felt recharged and able to "do this".I find sometimes find myself at the place where I wonder if I am up to the job.

Jenny,

Thanks so much for sharing about your convention experience! It blesses me more than you'll ever know! I'm so glad that we got a chance to visit and that you had a wonderful time at the convention. We pray you enjoy your upcoming year with HOD!

Blessings,
Carrie
