I just wanted to congratulate Meredith on giving such a wonderful talk about Montessori within a 4Real environment at the 4Real Conference on Saturday. It was so amazing that she traveled all the way from Idaho on her own, without pay, just to share her love of Montessori learning with those of us who are just getting our feet wet.

Thank you, Meredith, for your great commitment on these boards AND in real life...you're an inspiration!

And she is just as sweet and charming in real life as she is here!

If you weren't there, stay tuned for DVD info because we captured Meredith on tape. And her handouts will be available if you PM Rachel May or check Meredith's blog.

Meredith, thanks again!

Oh my goodness, I have just turned on my computer for the first time since I returned last night and I am so appreciative of your comments and kind words. It was SO fun for me and wonderful to meet so many of you, thank you so much for hearing me out!! I know you'll be anxiously awaiting my handouts and other conference info, After I sort out the 300 emails and Montessori forum posts

I'm so glad you were busy while I was away, I'll try and catch up befor bedtime

God Bless you all!

Let me second (or is third, fourth or fifth, I just don't know? ) how great Meredith was. Her talk was so informative, and she had such poise up there - much more than I could have managed. You're in for a treat on the DVD/CD when it becomes available. I know I'm going to need to get them just to remember everything she said since I had a nursing baby at the time and couldn't take notes .

Hey guys, I'm making this a new thread as it has nothing to do with my talk OR the wonderful thanks I received, which I am SO grateful to you all!! Let's discuss this here, thanks ladies!
