Bilingual Homeschooling
Feb. 2, 2009
Here we Go!!
So after much prayer and pursuasion to the hubby, we have the green light to homeschool! But first let me tell you a ltttle of how we got to this point. We have 3 little ones, which for the sake of mommy safety we will nicname, Egster (Age 9) my miracle in the making, was diagnosed with High functioning Autism at the age of 4 but I have officially undiagnosed him, he gets the help from docs and the modified work at school and is doing AWESOME, but I am waiting for a complete healing. Next is Kooshman (Age 7) he is my imaginaion station on wheels, loves to draw and create and he has been asking to be homeschooled forever and now he has his chance, last but certainly not least is our princess which we will call (Moomi Age 6) so cute and so into nature and babydolls and loves to wander into books and anything that has glitter and pink on it.
My husband and I have been pastoring a church for about 7 months and love them to pieces! It has been both a challenge and a victory and we can't wait to see what happens and what God has in store for us.
When we decided we would move to be closer to church I also thought why not homeschool the kiddos, I was so upset with the current school systems and my kids creativity was being extinguised by long homeworks and long days at school and after visiting a couple of times and praying for direction I started pursuing my research and fell in love with this way of teaching my kids. DH has been wanting to resign from his secular job for awhile and focus more on the church, therefore be home more often, so we compromised and I said, I will go to work at from 7:00 -3:00 pm and you do morning homeschool and I will do the rest on the weekends or at night. Note my DH is born in El Salvador therefore he is not completely fluent but does speak the language, but hey that can only be to their advantage right, learning the language. So he will do the not english language needed much subjects (math,science) and I will do the rest.    
So their you go, the start to our adventure begins, and I can't wait to share it with you all!
Be blessed,
Erika |
