Author Information

Jan and Vicki Cespedes were high school sweethearts. Although they both had good, caring teachers, they came out of the conventional education system feeling inept and sorely unprepared for life. Their newfound Christian faith transformed them by giving meaning and purpose to their lives. They held fast to the refreshing truth that guided them, especially when they started having children, 5 precious daughters, Ivana, Belicia, Briana, Giana and Eliana. They had no idea how to be parents, let alone educate them, yet they had an undeniable conviction that they should home educate their daughters so that they could devote themselves to the discipleship of their hearts for Jesus. This led the way to a homeschooling experience that was productive beyond their dreams, including reading early, graduating early, and breaking the age ceilings in their various fields of study including Nutrigenomics, Accounting, Business, Law, and American Sign Language. However, they are most grateful for the internal beauty they see in the character of their daughters, which they consider the greatest success of all.
