My name is Heather Laurie. My husband, Christopher and I have been married for 13 wonderful years. We have been blessed with 7 children, two of whom are awaiting us in Heaven.
We began our homeschooling journey nine years ago. We later found out that our children have a mitochondrial disorder. It causes a large variety of medical and learning problems. I have severe health issues as well, including lupus.
This has brought our homeschooling journey to many unexpected places. We have homeschooled in the hospital, many a doctor’s office, and therapy parking lots. Four of the kids are on the autism spectrum and have varying levels of sensory issues. The wide variety of problems the children have dealt with or are dealing with has left me uniquely positioned to cover first hand a large variety of problems.
The Lord is guiding us through this as He has every other storm we have faced. If I can pass on one lesson it is to listen to God. He is the goal at the end of the homeschooling journey.
My husband and I have been praying for years that our trials could be put to the Lord’s glory.
I am always open to ideas, comments and questions for the blog.
If we stand together encouraging and supporting one another we are stronger! You can homeschool your child no matter the limitation or special need they have! You can do it!
