Florence- What kind of specialist did he see to find out it was OK? Hi w2w, My husband is home this morning and we were able to review the details. He went in for a physical and was suffering from a bad cough. They thought he might have pneumonia, but the x-rays revealed a scar on his lung. This th...

w2w, We have a very similar story as others that have already posted. My husband, who is 51 and a non-smoker, had a complete physical this fall that also disclosed spots on his lung. They proceeded with further testing immediately, a referral, etc. and it went from being a very serious issue to a no...

water2wine,

I'm praying for you, your husband, your family.

God's peace be with you.

However, we're very excited that the daily Bible readings scheduled all year to go through the Old Testament and New Testament stories will really get kiddos deep into their Bibles and into the habit of a daily quiet time. 8) Carrie - This sounds great. :D I had read the thread about Bible, but I d...

I've decided to go ahead and spend the $$ on the Bigger economy package. You are right, DITHOR, in and of itself is quite a bit of $$, so I believe you are right that it may be wiser to put the $$ into the main program. Isn't it wonderful to make a decision AND I think your decision is RIGHT ON for...

Can anyone help me with these two? I am starting my 8yo 3rd grader in Bigger and DITHOR in January for our first attempt at homeschooling. So, I don't really know how she learns. I know that she struggles some in math at school, and has already pegged herself as "no good in math". I have Cathy Duff...

(okay, have you figured out that I do not know how to use the quote function? Lol.) LOL :lol: I just figured out how to use the quote function 2 days ago, so I'm very excited to share this with you. :D You must log-in for the message function to work. Once you are logged in and you are reading a th...

Hi Marypoppins, "I hereby absolve you of any guilt manifested in you because of a desire or need to switch curriculums." Feel better? Honestly. You're the mom. If you've discerned you don't have your son where you want him to be there are many options. Do not. I repeat. Do not let allow yourself to ...

Thanks W2W.

I just sent you a PM.

With Joy!

When I first came to HOD I sort of thought I would skip the HOD Bible and do just the chronological study only but I saw so much depth and value in the HOD study and it really impacted my children in an amazing way that I worked it now to do both. w2w - Yes! That's what I had been thinking initiall...

w2w - Thank you for the link and the details. I used the 30 days book years ago when teaching a Bible Study and it still remains the single most effective tool I've ever used in grasping the Bible chronologically. What a great idea to use it with children! So, as I understand it you use the HOW meth...

The illogical to the world is actually what I hold higher. :D Our plan is to have a minimum of 4 tours of the Bible before they graduate and study that deeply. I figure all of their life experience and future success rests more on us accomplish that than anything else we could do in the way of Hist...

The music CD has 7 songs that sing Phil. 2 word for word. The music style is varied in keeping with the mood of the various parts of the passage. It does have some drums and is very upbeat in parts and very worshipful in others. The quality of the music is excellent. The version of the CD is in the...

For those of you who come from a workbook approach, how long did it take for your dc (and yourself) to adjust to the CM style of curriculum? My oldest ds (11) LOVES the work in Preparing, but he does not like waiting on me for the teacher directed assignments. He wants to just read the lesson manua...
