Last Monday, Lil and I consolidated our thots on homeschooling and made a decision together that we’d like to homeschool Josh. This process has gone on for the past few months…
For me, this is a one of the most significant decision for my family. It is also one key decision tied in with our parenting philosophy. How we arrived at this decision is a surprise even to us… =)
Few years back, this whole idea of homeschooling was nothing more than a foreign idea. I may of heard of it, but may have thot it’s only for people who don’t fit in to normal school.
But over the course of the past few years, with several different exposures to families who homeschool, and seeing the benefits of doing something like that ourselves, Lil and I found ourselves (individually) slowly opening up to the idea of doing it ourselves.
We’ll share more with you our journey… but for now.. suffice to say that we need your prayers. For God to lead and guide us in this process. For his strength and wisdom
Wow. that is a courageous step to take! Good for you for stepping out in faith and swimming up the cultural stream. If I/we can help in any way, we want to do so. We support you 100%. of course if you were in the S’pore school system we would support you 100% as well. Homeschooling is not the ‘right’ way to educate, it is one of many ways.
My hope and prayer is that this is a great time of not only educating for all of you, but that the added time together as a family pays off huge! Raising a child is about character, more than knowledge.
How is your decision being received by friends and family? If you need resources in S’pore we are still in touch with many homeschooling friends there!
YOU ARE LOVED!
