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!

Water water everywhere #174. April 28th outing to Steinhart Aquarium

The Kelp forest is amazing. To me, they look like perfectly-lit torches. The tall stalk is called Stipe, the bottom roots-like structure that anchors the kelp is called a Holdfast, leaves are called Blades, and the round air-filled sacs for flotation is called the Gas Bladder.

    If not for the catfish, the second photo would really look like a forest!

      The catfish was not moving and took its spot right there. It must’ve felt cozy in that spot. It’s a lovely spot to sit and look up at the fish and sunlight peers down through the tunnel.

      It was very big!! This is the same aquarium we have been going to where the albino alligator lives.
