What worked: almost everything, but I've been most happy with our LA lineup: OPGTR (DD7 is almost finished and I'm so happy with her reading this year; in the fall I'll be starting it all over with DD5), AAS, WWE, and FLL. I've also been pleasantly surprised with the MP 1st grade enrichment and MP Storytime Treasures and More Storytime Treasures.
What didn't work: Sassafras science. I can hardly stand to read it aloud, but DD7 likes it, so I will finish out the book. Next year we are switching to Nancy Larson science. Also, Beyond the Code was not DD7's favorite, so we quit after the first book. I think she gets better reading comprehension from the MP Storytime Treasures.
What could work, but isn't: nature study. I think we've done five nature walks total this year. It's usually the first thing to go when the day gets busy.

She is a Catholic CM homeschooler and she does have high school age children.

We adopted through Chinese Children Adoption International (CCAI). I highly recommend them for many reasons including the fact that their fees tend to be much lower then other agencies and when you are in country you will have some of the best guides around. The last thing we wanted was to be half way around the world where we did not speak the language trying to bring home our child and run into problems.
.
I second the recommendation of CCAI. We used them for both our adoptions and have nothing but good things to say.

Aquaphor! Our temps don't usually get that low but both DDs are prone to dry skin in winter and Aquaphor works best.
