Homeschooling

What are you checking on the internet right now? Facebook? Yahoomail? Blogs? cigar ratings , twitter or youtube? I’m currently researching about Accelerated Christian Education (ACE), School of Tomorrow Asia because I’m interested to homeschool Hyzyd on evenings and Saturdays while attending regular Thai school. If I’m not working, I could fully homeschool him. I want him to be educated in a Christian way. It’s my obligation as a parent to give my son a Godly education. Actually, we’ve found a church here handling ACE curriculum. It’s still on its 2nd year and they can’t handle preschoolers yet because they lack teachers. Methinks, how about training myself about this curriculum and handle homeschooling by myself and my husband’s assistance? Any thoughts? This plan is still under prayer. So help us God.
