looking at home school options

Anyone out there homeschool children with delays/special needs?  Amanda, if you are reading,  I'd like to chat with you a bit.  We are pondering this for Dillon next year (5th grade).  Several reasons why. Just not sure how the logistics work and what is best for Dillon because he is so social. Praying for clarity and vision, or as Francis Chan says we are "prinking"...praying and thinking. The main goals for him are:  learn to read, learn to do basic math, read God's word, improve his articulation to speak clearly, learn to go to a store and purchase food, figure out the cost and be able to pay correctly, learn to cook, learn to be independent and safe alone at the house(he lacks any problem solving skills and would have no clue how to act in an emergency), provide music and sports fun, lots of fun for him, him be happy!  Of course, I'll still be working 2 shifts a week plus going to grad school 1 afternoon a week.  We will be creative with this and enlist support from friends and family members.  We have a possible avenue that we are praying over. If an experienced home school/working momma has some suggestions, leave a comment or email me at beepa27@gmail.com
