My full and kooky life as a homeschooling mommy to 2 great kids, raising a child with HLHS (Hypolastic Left Heart Syndrome), coping with depression, following Jesus, and being much too camera happy.

Welcome to my blog! My name is Esther and I’m so happy you are here. I’m an avid nature photographer and a daydreaming thinker. My posts revolve around photos of nature’s beauty, homeschooling adventures with my 2 kids, sporadic reflections on my child’s heart condition, Bible reading reflections, gardening feats, and other mish mash things. Hopefully you’ll leave encouraged, pensive, or smiling at the simple things of life. Thank you for stopping by and hope you’ll find some interesting posts to read!

    What a fun day! I love how the ducks’ green heads are shining in the sun.

      It was a great outing! Usually, we have to zig zag on our walks because of the birdies’ poops. but the recent rains cleared that all away. The green heads on the male Mallard ducks are fantastically green!

      Thankfully they stayed at the pond! But I’ve heard that the white ducks go to a neighbor’s house when they miss a day’s feed. It surprised them. 🙂

I am glad to see the kids happily feeding the ducks
