What the Attendees Have to Say:Last Saturday Linda Hobar was at our convention. Yeah!!! I took my daughter with me so that she could meet her and I took their picture. We're going to put the picture in dd's (9) notebook. We also had her sign our book. We are almost done with MOH I but we went to her workshop about it anyway. It was great! My daughter kept looking at me and whispering to me when she remembered something that Linda was talking about. I was surprised at how much she remembered! Linda, thank you so much for all of you're hard work! You were truly an answer to prayer. Two years ago I went to the same convention looking for a history curriculum, I knew what I wanted it to be like but couldn't find what I was looking for. Linda's was the last booth. MOH was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you Linda, I just wanted to say that I had the opportunity to meet Linda and hear her speak at the INDY conference and she was absolutely delightful! If you get the chance to see her, please do. IMHO - it was the best session of the weekend! She exudes joy and enthusiasm and truly makes History come alive.Thanks Linda, we are loving MOH. - Tina |
