I just found your blog through another one. I ...Hi! I just found your blog through another one. I also am a homeschooling Mom. We have 10 children, seven still at home. Our youngest boy,14 months old, was diagnosed with Down syndrome at three weeks old. I definitely relate to that feeling of wanting to research things, intending to do so many things in my day that there is just not time for. Even so, with all the older siblings our kids have sooo much going for them in terms of stimulation, encouragement, etc. Just when I've thought,"oh, I haven't worked with him enough today, how am I ever going to do this",then he surprises me with some new accomplishment.

(we are not there yet) I think you're doing great!Cheri Thttp://yahoo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219575533193649231.post-83365474365905529902009-10-06T00:33:27.429-04:002009-10-06T00:33:27.429-04:00Way to go on drinking from a straw cup!

We do Signing Time! but only because I did them before with my boys. How did you choose which reading program to go with? Sometimes I suffer from "to do with Miss Banana" overload while at the same time wondering how my other kids learned how to do anything without all the therapies/information that I have now!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04013763658631776585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219575533193649231.post-47775569749551725162009-10-05T11:51:06.681-04:002009-10-05T11:51:06.681-04:00Flash cards work amazingly well!
