WOW! This has been a ride! I was originally going to do Bigger with my dd8 and Beyond with my dd6, but decided it was way too much to do both for us right now, so I went looking. I even BOUGHT another program (which I now have to sell
)that I thought would be easier to combine. I sat down yesterday and really started to plan for tomorrow. Long story short....HOD started tugging at my heart and we will be starting Beyond tomorrow! I know my oldest could do Bigger or even Preparing, but we do our own thing for LA anyway and I am going to add some notebooking and a history reader or two and we'll be off and running. We are also going to use another science (which I also bought and might as well use:) in addition to what is written in the guide. Just had to stop and share our departure and return to HOD!! So excited!!! There really is nothing else out there quite like it (and believe me, I have looked!!)

Congratulations! Praying you have the best fit for your little ones. We are also doing Beyond this year and will start I think mid Sept. We are very excited to do it. We loved Bigger and LHFHG last year! It's all great it is just about finding the perfect one for your family.
I completely understand your searching. Sometimes we are led to the perfect thing but we just keep searching anyway. I was going through all the stuff I had on my shelf. Some of it good but most of it is just stuff I kept on throwing at the wrong thing to try to make it right. It is so wonderful to finally have the perfect fit for our family with HOD.
Congratulations and enjoy!

Enjoy Beyond with your dc - we are going to be doing it as well, and we'll be starting in Sept. We've done Beyond before with our oldest a few years back and loved it. It sounds like you've got a good plan in place!

Coleen,
Sometimes you just have to go through that searching to really discover the best fit for your upcoming year!
I'm glad to hear that you've landed on Beyond and pray that you will enjoy it with your kiddos as much as we have in the past. We'll be doing it this year with our third son and look forward to sharing our journey through Beyond with you!
Blessings,
Carrie
