Angela is a married-to-the-military, mother of four chaotic kids. She is passionate about ministering to homeschooling families, disability rights, theology and coffee. Angela has a BAS in Christian Ministry and is currently working on her MA in Christian Education as well as an MA in Theological Studies. She and her husband of fourteen years, Jason, have been homeschooling their kids for five years.
I married Jason, and the military, in 1996. In 1997 we welcomed our first child, Harley, who I can hardly believe is a teen now! 3 kiddos followed--very quickly--Jagger 2000, Xander 2001, and Milan early 2003.
We began our homeschooling journey 5 years ago. We'd have laughed in your face if you'd told us we'd ever be "those people". Those things people say to homeschoolers:
"I could never do that. I couldn't be with my kids all day--they'd drive me nuts. They won't be socialized".
I said it all.I am currently working full-time on my degrees, homeschooling the kiddos, and trying to keep up with the day-to-day activities. God blessed me with a very patient and supportive man to help, hold, and handle me through it all.
You can ask me about:
Autism, Epilepsy, Learning Disabilities, Montessori, Classical homeschooling, Homeschooling in general, Some Eye Disorders...
**Before you email me about Autism, Epilepsy or Learning Disabilities you need to know:**
- I do not believe vaccinations brought Autism into our home
- I do not see any of the issues as "worse than cancer", something to be apologized for or an added burden. We received the exact babies that God chose to give us... and believe He doesn't make mistakes. :)
- We are not looking for cures... new diet, contraptions, etc. With the Epilepsy we are going with medication prescribed from a neurologist and are quite comfortable with it!
The best part of it all is that I get to do all of this and spend every precious moment with these crazy kiddos.
I am so thankful for our chaotic life.
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
