Welcome to a view unlike most!

Before my grandfather died he told me that I should write a book.  That is one of many statements he delivered that will remain with me forever.  While this is not the book I may one day write, it will serve as an avenue to get things started.

The views posted here are mine, as lame or twisted as they may be or become. One of the many gifts Americans are given is the gift of being able to think for ourselves through powerful freedom granted by the forefathers and protected by numerous men and women of the Armed forces.

A New Year represents another new start. New starts are vital to one's survival.  They allow for us to own our mistakes and to learn from them as we venture down new paths.

2010 was an amazing year for me.  Our boys are thriving and growing, Paul and I are as close as ever, and I am growing professionally.  However, there is always room for improvement.

I have always believed as Mufasa stated to Simba in The Lion King that I am more than I've become.  Each day I work to become the best that I am to be.  2011 will be no different for me.  I will strive to make real differences in the various areas of my life.  I will strive to post updates weekly to my blog.  Here's to working toward more in 2011.

  1. Great start Heather! As you grow professionally I urge you to stay in touch with the classroom. I know that your priorities may be administratively focused; however, the classroom is where the work of the local school district takes place. I know I am preaching to a chior member, but think that we all need reminders from tiome to time, so when you find yourself not knowing where to turn visit the classroom.
