I started volume 1 with Hannah, so I have put volume 4 on hold for the months of November and December with Abby. I just added some advanced material for her. I didn't want to stress myself during the holidays.

I am so pleasantly surprised at how much Abby is getting getting out of our lessons. I asked her if she remembered doing these when she was 6. But she said it was hard for her to remember much from that time. She was having so many seizures, and was on so much medication that her little brain was just overloaded!

It has been such a joy to see how far she has come since then. It's hard to believe that I am able to teach both my girls at the same time given their age difference. I am tremendously thankful for the quality of the books and flexiblity of the lessons. I imagine that even after we go back to Volume 4 in January she will continue to glean lessons from Volume 1.

I just wanted to share how this program continues to touch our lives.

What a wonderful post. My 3 "middle girls" are 8, 6 and 5 and we are just LOVING sharing learning together. My 14yr old has not missed ONE FIAR lesson this year. She always "just happens" to be around when we pick up our FIAR selection:lol: Enjoy your learning!!!

I'm so glad your whole families are enjoying the Five in a Row lesson times. That makes learning so special, when you can do it together! I've always believed that. Through the years some have talked about how husbands, grandparents and neighbors have learned of the lessons and made contributions, as well. I love it when the learning spreads out in circles and is really full of "life!"

And yea for Abby! :clap:

Thanks for sharing and for your encouraging words to me and to one another! :)

Missy, I know what you mean about being able to teach your children together! It's awesome.

We love FIAR so much I've bought all the Beyond so we are set for many years ahead that I know will pass all too quickly.
