well, not really of course. but i just keep finding myself so excited for july 1st. this is when we start lhth for the second time and beyond for the 1st time. we get to do history and science! all in a purposeful way. we get to read chapter books and start learning about writing!! can you believe this much excitement over teaching school? and i'm not just excited to teach her, i'm really excited about learning it all myself. (especially the history.)

woohoo!!

Hi annegirl,

I feel the same way!

I just got my box of LHFHG two days ago and after looking through it all am SUPER excited to start it with my first grader! I spent yesterday laminating my TM and the CLP books, and spread the whole lot out on the floor so I could just look through stuff! Fun times

I am right there with you guys!! I think we need to start a support group for hs moms with HCLD (Hyperactive Curriculum Love Disorder)

Me too! Me too!

And you know what? Our enthusiasm about learning is bound to be contagious to our students! I am truly praising God for the blessing of HOD in our lives. I hope my family loves it as much as I think we will.

Ditto!

I was trying to explain to my mom why I was so excited. I took my catalog over and showed her. She didn't really care! That's okay. I still love her.

Lol Susie! I agree, about the support group.

*standing up* "Hi, my name's Amey and I have Hyperactice Curriculum Love disorder." *sitting down* Whew, glad that's over with...the first step is admitting you have a problem!

Motherjoy~ my Mom would just say "uh huh, looks great honey" if I brought my catalog over. You're not alone!

Oh I will join the support group too. I also have HCLD! My dd started in LHFHG in Jan. and the first thing I purchased with our '''stimulus package" was BLHFHG!

We wont even start it till Jan. 09!

I agree admitting you have a "problem" is the first step! ok I will admit it, I LOVE HOD

My name is Crystal and I am here to join the support group.

I too am very excited to be learning so much along side of my kids. I can't wait to get to all the great stuff that's in the older programs. But I must admit, I'm learning some in LHFHG too.

Hey if we had not gone to the Creation Museum with our stimulus package I would have used part of it for curriculum too!

And let me tell you Hannah is only 3yo, BUT I have had LHTH and LLATL Blue (did have Red) and MFW-K, and R&S 1st math and phonics/reading since she was ONE!! besides my addiction I have no other way to REALLY check out programs except to buy them used and look over them good. But the shear number of years in advance that I have had the books tell you something about my addiction!!

And that we had better income back then too!! Now I have only added LHFHG to my collection. Poor me! Only 2 years in advance!

Besides my addiction I also have this nagging fear that when the time comes I won't have the money for the curriculum we need. Anyone else like this

yes! I definatley relate to that. That is why I bought our curriculum 8 mo. in advance, I never want to be in a position where we need the curriculum and can't afford it for whatever reason, that is why the first thing we bought with our stimulus was next years curriculum, now I know that no matter what, we are coverd! At least until 2010
