Meet Our Family

Desperate Homeschoolers Family Picture

We are a family of seven – a dad, a mom, three growing girls, and two little boys. In this picture are the ones who do all the schoolwork while Daddy works and the baby (hopefully) naps or plays quietly! Our family lives and works internationally. We are Americans, but all three girls were born in Indonesia. We now live in Malaysia, where our sons were born. This is our place to give you a taste of our homeschool life and hopefully provide a safe place where you can come and share your questions, victories, and frustrations so we can all learn together.
