Dear Donna,

I am so glad I bought your first grade curriculum. So far homeschooling has been a joyous and therapeutic experience for our family because of the encouragement we receive in the Waldorf at Home forum and through your curriculum.

Although you are probably swamped with pictures from your fans I thought I would send along a few. I don’t know anyone using Waldorf where we live so I have no one to share this stuff with!!! We just finished our first Language Arts block and used the story about the puffed up prince. My girls love this story and at dinner time they puff up their chests and pretend to be puffed up and petulant.

I love your down to earth advice and flexible guidelines.

This is our first year homeschooling and in the past weeks I have sometimes doubted our decision to do this. But when I doubt I take out my girls “Good Books” and see their progress and marvel at the beauty of this form of education. Thank you for helping us make Waldorf a reality in our home.

Much Love…
