Just Placed My Order for Preparing!
Hi Everyone!
I just placed my order for Preparing! My son and I are both really excited about it. This is what I have been looking for in a curriculum for years. I'm looking forward to sharing our HOD journey with all of you here. Kimber

How exciting! Please tell us all about it when you start. I can't wait to hear about Preparing! Welcome to HOD. You will love it!

Thank you all for such a warm welcome. And Melanie, that is exactly what I am hoping to do.
It has been a long search to find a curriculum that matches with my son's need for a strong hands-on learning style so I'm planning to continue with HOD as long as we can. Kimber

I'm so glad to see another "Preparing" family & can't wait to start comparing notes. I'll be using it with a 10 year old son. I'll also have a 15 year old daughter that I would like to include as much as possible, but as I look at her plans for next year I don't know how much time she'll have for us!

Hi Janet!
That is so neat that our children are similar ages. And I am looking forward to sharing how things go too. I think it is so neat that tomorrow is our last day of school and both of my boys are really looking forward to our next school year.
I like being a student as well as the teacher with both my boys so next year I will be doing 5th grade and 10th grade work. BWG! I worked today on getting our Common Place books together as well as our general notebooks set up for next year. I think that is one of the best things about homeschooling. I get to learn too.
Thank you Carrie for creating an elementary program that even a mom wants to do. Kimber

Hi Anita!
Well from what I understand from reading the samples online, it is a composition notebook that the student collects their copywork, poetry, scripture verses, etc...I think they add to it through the year. I'm sure I'll learn more once I get the teacher's guide but I figured that I could at least glue a title cover with some fun clip art on the composition notebooks and have them ready for the next school year.
I think I'm just excited to get started and I just have to do something.
I have pre-school year nesting.

I can't wait to go through "Preparing..." along with you next year! I'm so glad you placed your order Kimber, and it's a tradition to share your "box day" with us here - so be sure and let us know when it comes so we can celebrate too!
In Christ,
Julie

Kimber,
I'm so excited for you to get your order for "Preparing...". We'll be teaching it next year with our second son right along with you.
I love to try the ideas out for a new curriculum on my poor oldest son, and then teach the guide exactly as written the following year to my second son! That way I get to share the excitement of the new program along with all of you!
Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm.
Blessings,
Carrie
