Allright ladies, I've been given the go-ahead to invite Lori from Montessori For Everyone to be a guest speaker here at the Montessori Forum

I'm shooting for sometime next week pending she's willing and available Please respond and let me know what day would be preferable or IF you have a preference. And then I'll try and lock down a time frame. As we're all in different time zones this may be a bit tricky, but we'll do our best!

Let me know what you'd like and if you are as excited about this as I am

Blessings!

Earlier in the week is better for me too. Mon or Tue.
GREAT!

Oh! I love Lori's blog! I can't wait. I can be flexible I think as far as timing goes. Just tell me when so I can get the Little-Bear Marathon cued up in the DVD player.

This will be great. I'm fairly flexible as well, although earlier in the week is preferable.

This is great! Tuesday evening (or later in the week, but I see earlier is best for most) would be better for me as we'll be camping on Monday.

I'm pretty flexible, so early next week is fine -- evening is better. Just give me enough advance notice so that I can figure out something for the babies or warn dh! (I'm on EST, btw.)

It looks like it will be sometime Tuesday afternoon as she has a little girl who naps in the afternoon!! It can be sort of fluid as there is a difference in time zones for some of us, but let's give it a go!! I'll post a few more details in the next couple of days!

Ok, the *thread* will be opened this next Tuesday (the 12th) around 11:00am (Mountain Time) and Lori will start looking in around 1-2:00PM-ish (Central Time) for part of the afternoon.

If you guys could start thinking of some questions, or just topics you'd like to see covered, you can go ahead and post them anytime once the thread is started. It will be titled "Welcome Lori from Montessori For Everyone". And don't worry if you can't actually participate in the discussion as the thread will be available for all to read and respond to afterwards as well.

Any questions, just ask here, or PM me and I'll be in touch on Monday afternoon!! Have a nice weekend all!

Oh, nuts! I am taking dd back to the doctor Tuesday for another recheck for her wheezing. I hope I will be around for the discussion, but, of course, the doctor's appt. has to be top priority. At least I will be able to come back and read the thread. Dd loves all the Montessori stuff.

I'm hoping I can get someone to take ds to karate for me. If not, I'll be racing back to join in!
