Sounds like you have a good combo for homeschooling.
My wife and I have, respectively, an English degree w/ tech writing experience, and an electrical engineer.

And we’re working on our “5 foot shelf” of Harvard Classics, though the chillins are too young for them yet.

One of our hobbies is fiction writing, we’re voracious readers and we have family resources like a veterinarian aunt, a history phd-to-be-aunt, a grandmother with enough knowledge about Shakespeare for a master’s degree even if she doesn’t have the paper, the other grandmother with actual degrees in biology and other fields... yeah.

Liberal arts education should be at home, so that when they hit college they don’t need to waste time and money or risk indoctrination.
