Welcome to my blog. My name is Heidi (hi-d) and I am an artist, a mother of 4 boys, a wife, and a teacher to my three youngest. I enjoy really knowing my kids, finding each of their unique talents and giving them personalized encouragement! This blog is just some of what our journey entails - as time allows.

Hi Heidi–just happened to come across your story and I am just amazed at what you have encountered in your young life! You are an incredible woman! I remember so well your “growing up years” in Lodi and would never have believed that you would have to experience such pain and stress in your life as a mom. I am so thankful that has continued to improve. As a mom of three “boys” (now grown men!) I will agree with you that boys are great! Hang in there, girl! You are doing an incredible job and I as proud of you!
Meant to say–so thankful that Gerrit has continued to improve!
