Just finished reading my HOD catalog cover to cover...

Post by jenn in nc » Fri Aug 07, 2009 9:37 am

... and it answered so many of the questions I have had about various aspects of the HOD programs. What an inspiring read! Carrie I am so grateful for the work you have done and the heart you have put into this! The only thing now is I am left wishing you were my neighbor! :D

I just feel like this curriculum is exactly what I have been wishing for but didn't know existed. I can't wait to start my girls in LHTH as soon as it arrives! I love how the lessons are short and engaging and a good balance between table activities, cuddle activities, move-around-and-get-the-wiggles-out activities, etc etc. I LOVE that I can choose my own phonics program. Not trying to be overy-dramatic, but this feels like such a huge answer to prayer for me.

I am now totally convinced about DITHOR being the just-right program for my boys (12, 10, and almost 8 ) too. I can see that my concerns about more pen and paper work were unfounded b/c it looks very twaddle free and totally enjoyable. I'll be ordering that soon too.

Feelin' soooo happy to be here. :)

Jenn,

I just wanted to welcome you to the board and let you know that we're glad you're here! :D I'm happy you've gotten a chance to read the catalog and are feeling that HOD is an answer to your prayers. We pray often that those who would be blessed by HOD would be led here. The Lord is always faithful. :D

Blessings,
Carrie

Thanks for the reminder about the catalog. I've been a bit discouraged because of a couple of issues (primarily ds4.5's lack of interest in anything I'm trying to do with him, plus the ongoing debate of combining vs. each one in their own program). I admit I allowed discussion of HOD on another board to further those feelings. :oops: I need to read through the catalog again and remind myself why I picked HOD in the first place!
