This year I will be getting my feet wet homeschooling and then plunge deeper in a couple of years once our son is home. I never thought I would be homeschooling, but God is the one in control not me. I can only do this by His Grace, and leading. I never even knew what homeschooling was until I dated someone in college who was homeschooled, and he turned out well (social, articulate etc). Then I did a research paper for my speech class on homeschooling. Our church actually has a number of families that homeschool so I don't feel totally out of sync. Praying the next 6 months go by as quickly. Praying for you my son.

August 6
I realized looking at the date today, that on August 6th we have been 'waiting' for our referral for 7 months now. It has gone by pretty quickly, but not fast enough! I am in the process of getting ready to homeschool our youngest, Cathryn using FIAR curriculum. We have signed Caroline up at a classical education school in the area for this year, where she will be learning Latin and other subjects. My plan is to homeschool her when she is in 3rd grade and Cathryn is in 1st grade using Tapestry of Grace curriculum. It is a classical education as well.

Good luck! It will be wonderful to share that education expereince with your kids! So much can happen when the school doors close and you are the outside. I admire your determination
We have felt the same way as you .... time seems to go so slowly at times but then seems to fly by ....
It takes a very special mom to be able to homeschool ..... something I always wished I could do, but never had the courage to start. It sounds like you will have a lot of support.
Forgot to answer your question .... we are using TOL.
We homeschool and it's easier than it appears to be!! Plus, I love having my kids with me...6+ hours away from home(at "school") was a little too much for me:)

By the way, we are using TOL as well..it's awesome to get to know other TOL adopting families..

To answer your question..we are requesting a girl, 0-2 1/2, with minor/moderate special needs..we were told 12 months..could be longer..could be shorter. With the new laws going into place, I'm hoping for sooner:)
