Apparently, I'm Ingrid. Fun, though I could have done without that opening page with the ladies in their underwear, lol.

lol - I'm Marylin! Interesting! :)

Hey Jenn - Do you have any thoughts on a science curriculum for the younger grades? I started out with Lyrical Life Science this year and it isn't a right fit for us. I'm mostly just winging it now. Our Classical homeschool group does memory work and activities in science - this year it is on the human body. I'm counting that right now, but I'm looking for suggestions on resources and curriculums for at home. Any thoughts?
