    Hi everyone. I thought I posted earlier, but now I can't find the post, so maybe it's off dangling around in cyber space somewhere!

    Anyway, I am Marcy, mom to Ben, age 7, my only child. Ben will be starting 2nd grade in about another month (we school mostly year round). We live in Louisville, KY where I work full-time from home as telephone triage RN.

    I am a long time user of Five in a Row, but this coming year, we'll be moving on to My Father's World. We'll be starting with Exploring Countries and Cultures, and we are very excited!

    I have been very active in the FIAR web community for 4 years, but I guess it's time to move on now. I've heard this is a fun, fantastic group, so here I am, ready to join you all.

    I look forward to getting to know you better and sharing lots of support and info. I'm guessing I probably already know some of you! ;)

    Blessings,
    Marcy

    Hi!
    I found FIAR after my children had "outgrown" it...:(
    I have friends that use MFW and REALLY like it.
    Nice to have you here.

    Bob was more likeable when he wore orange and blue....we were sad when he left "The Swamp".

    We'll take Urban though...especially since his Heisman winning starting quarterback is a homeschool grad and gives homeschoolers some good PR. :cool: ;) :D
