WELCOME!

WELCOME! I used this blog to share our family's homeschooling thoughts and experiences. Our oldest child, EL, finished her formal education in May 2017, and we graduated our son, JJ, from High School in May 2021. I will leave this blog up for anyone who wishes to read our curriculum reviews or see what types of field trips and/or activities we participated in.

Tourette Syndrome Awareness


In light of Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month, click below to a recent post on HE HOLDS MY RIGHT HAND to find out more about this disorder. My son, JJ, was diagnosed at the age of 5, and it has caused some challenges in our home school that we have had to work through. For example, learning a new concept in Math causes anxiety and increases his tics. Writing can be difficult when his head and arms are having involuntary movements. Sitting still is often difficult as well. It has not been easy, but we continue to learn as we go, asking the Lord for wisdom and strength.
