“My eldest is only 2 but these are great to keep and I’m sure I’ll be listening again as they become more relevant as the children grow. It’s gives me confidence to have those seeds planted now so I have some sense of direction for the future and also to be learning some ‘theory’ along the way. Thank you SO MUCH for all of these wonderful conferences—it’s so great to have these resources, and while I haven’t been able to listen to every one, I have been so incredibly gifted by the ones I have listened to. I just purchased the new series..it really is such a deal! It is always really cool to *hear* what the authors have to say on the subjects…it can shed new light on any murky bits and sometimes you get info that didn’t make it into the book! The best of all? Buying the downloads I get it at *my* beck and call! That alone is the best feature for someone with a crazy busy homelife” – Cat C |
