Since I last commented here (I have your ...Hi, Amy.<br />Since I last commented here (I have your blog bookmarked), I've started my own blog about homeschooling, with some posts about hs'ing my daughter with Ds. I saw one of your posts asks bloggers to share their links, but I was not able to comment on that post. So if you could share my blog with your reader, I'd appreciate it. It's fairly new because I just started it end of last year, though I've hs'ed my kids for 13 years. http://thelearninghourglass.blogspot.com/<br />Thanks!!<br />JanetJanethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16972136892965722506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5116752642094471403.post-15809540270398591352013-05-17T14:03:24.930-05:002013-05-17T14:03:24.930-05:00Hi Janet,

Math is a challenge here also but strangely enough my Reagan loves math.<br /><br />We have used Time4Learning also though not for a few years. I loved the ease of schooling it allowed us!<br /><br />Hope to hear from you again. I haven't been on Facebook much of late. I'm on vacation and avoiding my laptop as much as possible!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954106861415671578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5116752642094471403.post-67885453272866198162013-05-14T21:52:33.605-05:002013-05-14T21:52:33.605-05:00I've just come across your blog through Facebo...I've just come across your blog through Facebook. Our daughter with Down syndrome is 16 years old. She's has a twin who is 'typical'. Well, you know what I mean. lol.<br />I'm excited to read more about you and your book.<br />So much of what I'm reading in your blog sounds like me. We've homeschooled since Kindergarten. Our daughter loves to read and is working at about a 2nd and 3rd grade level. We're working on improving reading comprehension. Her math is weak. She is probably at a 1st grade level there. We use Time4Learning.com and it works very well for her. She is able to work at her own pace. It's such a benefit that she can repeat lessons as often as needed...since she learns best through repetition. I haven't read your book yet, but I look forward to seeing what you're experience and what your research has taught you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12113475096974197894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5116752642094471403.post-75992458653583349812013-04-02T10:41:50.186-05:002013-04-02T10:41:50.186-05:00Thanks for stopping by Cheryl and for your kind wo...Thanks for stopping by Cheryl and for your kind words!

As for the post-homeschooling life, isn't it interesting to see the new directions God leads us in?

I found it through 5minutesformom.com. <br /><br />I started homeschooling my now almost 17-year-old daughter with cerebral palsy three years ago and it was the best decision ever. I've read other blogs about homeschooling kids with autism or mild learning disabilities and it just isn't the same. Everyone's journey is different, but your blog to me.
