About Heather

After watching my great grams health decline, I decided I wanted to become a caregiver. I helped my grandma take care of her for a couple years and learned how difficult and rewarding it is. I am a mother to a curious and witty little boy. I like to read, write, and binge on television in my spare time. I am most proud of what I have accomplished as a mother, so far.
