We are a completely unconventional family, homeschooling an 'only', a son age 12 who has many difficulties. Some LD issues, dyslexia, Asperger tendencies and some processing difficulties. We also have 2 older, grown children with children of THIER own, yes, making us grandparents 5 times over, going on 6!!!We live up here in greater Chicagoland, while everyone else is in Texas. Hubby works out of the 'city', driving those double semis for UPS. I LOVE to read, knit, crochet, cross stitch, sew, and recently learned to scrapbook, which I can't do often enough!
