About

heather

I’ve always loved to write, but am excited about just writing down some thoughts and interacting with others via “blogging”. Life has been full (I’m a mom of 5 boys and 1 girl….stayed home for years and am now back to teaching special education full time at a local elementary school). It’s sometimes tough to find time to wade through the busy stuff of life to get to the important. A few years ago, my family had some very close calls and that made me want to make the most of my days in a whole new way. So I thought I’d try to put some effort into writing my thoughts in this form. I love to take photos and draw analogies from visuals. I believe in Jesus Christ and am so thankful for the way that God speaks through creation. I see things through the eyes of one who believes that He IS, and that changes everything. Hope you enjoy the blog. Thanks for stopping by! Would love to hear your thoughts.

      Hi Anne. Yes we do have lots in common. I’ve enjoyed your photos and reading your perspectives on different topics . One thing I wish we had in common was traveling…love that you’ve been able to see a lot of the world and how it has influenced your take on things.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog and following. I am glad to meet you. 🙂

    I can only imagine the trials (and joys) you have raising 6 children. I have 4 boys and sometimes I feel like caving in in the demands of motherhood.

      Thank you as well! Sounds as though some of the challenges and joys are very similar with a houseful of boys… Blessings to you and yours

      Aww, thanks so much! I’d love to participate and will check it out. (Only deterrent would be lack of time…since school has started, my time for blogging has been tough to find!). But thanks so much, Kate. I really appreciate it!

        You’re welcome! Thanks for following my blog. 🙂
        Why did you choose to become “no awards blog”? Award shows the potential of blog and its author.

        You’re welcome. I enjoy reading. I decided to do the ‘no awards’ route because of a lack of time, etc. I do like opportunities to share my blog and would love to have more readers but at this point in my life am just keeping things simple. I’ve accepted them in the pat but just feel that it’s a timing thing! Blessings, Heather

    Wow kindred souls! Your heart and words read much like my own, as do your interests! I’m also a writer, photographer, mother 4, married 25 years and most importantly, a humble broken vessel in need of daily seeking the strength and Goodness of our Lord Jesus Christ! I’m excited to follow your blog!

    Hi Heather,

    My name is Jeff Reinert. I know your sister, Holly. You gave me some lyrics many years ago, one of which I wrote a song to a long time ago. I’ve just started putting some of my music online recently, and I was wanting to include the song with your lyrics, if you would allow. Please email me back and we can discuss. Here’s a link to my latest offering :). Scripture Memory, Vol. 1. https://youtube.com/@jeffreinert1
