Try protein shakes. I was feeling the effects of turning 42…… Well, we won’t discuss these here, but it’s still safe to say that protein shakes always seem to help me when the energy level sags. I don’t think they’re good for anything else that sags.

At the convention you suggested a checklist for each kid and they plan their week accordingly. Tried it this past week and had such a peaceful week! I didn’t have to nag! Thanks so much!

Teaching eight sessions sounds exhausting, but I’ll have to say that I enjoyed all six that I attended! So much information, but I really appreciated the very practical encouragement that came out of every session. Thanks again for making time in your schedule to meet the WTM’ers for lunch. It was fun!

Nicholson’s is Great! Did you get to Gold Star Chili or Skyline? And then there’s Graeter’s Ice Cream. Words fail me.

Thanks Susan for doing Cincy! I hope you’ll be back again. I learned so much about creating independent learners. You pieced together the missing links. We’re well on our way. Now I just need to learn to juggle one toddler, two “at-the-elbows,” and one “hovering.”

So, umm….the MassHope Conference? (Of course not this year.) But perhaps next year? Then my husband and I can hug your neck for being awesome and inspiring us to teach our children about the world in which they live. We’re, like, your biggest fans.

Susan, as I’m transferring my notes from my 2nd ed. TWTM to my NEW 3rd ed. TWTM, I see that you no longer recommend IEW for high school? Any specific reasons you can share?

Wow!! I did NOT attend the convention, but you ladies have sure fired me up for the Williamsburg conference. I have heard you speak many years ago, Susan, and am SOooooo looking forward to it again. I love your books and have used them for quite awhile. It will be nice to hear you this time, knowing your material better. Thanks you soooo much for having the conference in Williamsburg, my favorite place EVER! I hope you are not too worn out!!!

Thanks, Susan, for signing my stack of books, three high! That really made my day! I made the 8 hour return trip home without denting those corners. That is some kind of miracle! Also, you have no idea the help you were to my husband and I. Your practical advice really gave us a lightbulb moment. Thanks for putting in so much time and effort into the convention. It was appreciated.
