Please visit our family blog at http://www.xanga.com/leebenvic. For security purposes, we recently started replacing our children's names on this blog with more non-descript initials. <BR> J.12.ds = our oldest son, age 12. He likes computer/video games, Basketball, Football, and Lego.<BR> J.9.dd = our only daughter, age 9. She likes drawing, crafts, stuffed animals, and reading.<BR> J.7.ds = our middle son, age 7. He likes photography, animals, bugs, and nature.<BR> J.4.ds = our baby son, age 4. He likes fire trucks, Bob the Builder, enjoys saying hi to people in uniform.<BR> <BR>We'll be in Pensacola, Florida for about 2 years while Ben works on his second residency in Aerospace Medicine (He is also a Family Medicine Physician). Most of our extended family live in Southern CA. After Pensacola, Ben will probably have to be deployed on a ship for 6 months...Hopefully we can be stationed on the West Coast near family while he's away. We are an Asian-American (Ben is originally from South Korea and Vicki's grandparents are from Japan), military (US Navy) family who enjoys anything "children-related", home schooling, Bible study, Tupperware Home Business, attachment parenting, traveling, swimming, camping, fishing, reading, journal writing, scrapbooking, digital photography, computers, casual get-togethers with friends, simple/frugal living, trying different kinds of ethnic food, learning about different cultures, languages, etc. Our current homeschool methods include a somewhat relaxed, Charlotte Mason/Classical style using a mix of resources: Thomas Jefferson Education, Ruth Beechick, Cindy Rushton, Sonlight (for Literature, History), Story of The World (for history by Susan Bauer, author of The Well Trained Mind), Institute for Excellence in Writing IEW (for writing and spelling), BraveWriter.com, Math-U-See, Elementary Apologia Science, Handwriting Without Tears, Start Write, Audio books/cds (Jim Weiss, Classical Kids, Audio Memory, etc.), Tae Kwon Do, Awana, Girl Scouts, swimming, and of course, everyday life learning lessons...
