My Matthew is such a perfectionist he doesn;t like to try new things...so that book is awesome. It laysout nice and slow and easy. We are taking it slower, though...b/c we're also doing a Christian preschool 2 days a week. Plus, like I said he's a perfectionist and he likes to KNOW he can do it before he lets us see it. I am actually using it with Sara, too (she's 4). I figure she'll get something out of it and then I can repeat it next year for her (If I need to). We're not committed to homeschooling. we're send Matthew to public K next yr (we held him back b/c I wasn't ready ;-) ). Anyway...we may homeschool for real in few yrs.

I was amazed that most of the curriculum you use we use at my kids' classical school. LOVE Sonlight (timeline based and literature based). Along with Math U See, younger elem use ACSI Purposeful Design Math series. One other thing: for Phonics our younger elem use Spell to Write and Read. It is wonderful! I was amazed when our 5 year old could read words or spell them because she knew the rules. It is a very simple method (I think Susan Wise Bauer has a book). I love hearing about other homeschool journeys because right now the school is great for our kids, but w/4 kids not a likely long term plan. Thanks for the update!
