Just had to share my joy.

Post by Laura O. » Tue Nov 29, 2011 11:19 pm

I know I haven't posted any updates lately about our books and studies :oops: :oops: But I really just wanted to share how thankful I am and how well things are going :D My kids *love* doing school.They enjoy all the projects. And I can honestly say there aren't any subjects they don't like. It just seems so amazing that they are having so much fun and yet they are learning so much more than before too :shock: :D And I say this after 7 years of homeschooling :? :oops: I thank God everyday for leading us to HOD, where learning is actually a joy.

A couple days ago I was discussing with my mother children with parents that don't know the Lord. My 5 year old over heard us and asked about it. I told him how some children's parents don't know the Lord. He listened and thought for a few moments. Then he said "so that means they don't get to go to church? And that they won't get to do fun school about God?" I cannot express how much joy I felt that he now thinks of school as something fun and special and a priviledge :D :D

Thank you Carrie, for all your work you put into the guides.

That is precious, Laura. Thank you so much for sharing! Your son sounds like a delight, and he is learning the TRUE meaning of education -- knowing God. Bless you!

BTW, I feel the same. Thank you to all the HOD staff for such a God-honoring and Kingdom-minded curriculum.
