sing like wildflowers
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!

Wow what a beautiful Lamp around Red 🍒 flowers. Beautiful & pretty!🥀
Thank you! The red/pink flowers are in full bloom. We have the same tree by our house, but that one hasn’t bloomed in 3 years.
Ohh . You have the same tree you house. It’s good. Your 🏠 big & yard pace! But why bloomed in 3 years.
Where that red & pink bloom?
You are most welcome!
What’s your good name? Can I call you?
Looks like the lamppost in Narnia. 😊
I didn’t think of that! Great connection.
We just finished “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” so it was fresh in my brain!
Fabulous book! We listened to that book on Audible and it was well done and entertaining. It’s been a few years and I think the kiddos will appreciate it more now.
Are you listening to any good Audibles? We could use some receommendations.
We’re currently listening to the entire Narnia series. I got a collection on Audible for one credit! “The Phantom Tollbooth” narrated by David Hyde Pierce was a family favorite. “Holes” was another family favorite. “The One and Only Ivan”, “Because of Winn Dixie”, “The Losers Club”, “Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH”. My husband is a reluctant reader/reluctant listener and those are all books he really enjoyed listening to. He’s my litmus test for really engaging books! 😁
We heard the “One and Only Ivan” and it was awesome. You got a deal for the entire Narnia collection!
It’s great that your husband is your litmus test…we only use the samples as ours. Ok, I’m asking you for suggestions from now on!
“Pablo and Birdy” narrated by the author
Nice! Thank you for sharing. I’ll check it out.
