Just watched a heart wrenching Hallmark movie and squeezed and held and kissed my three kids more than ever after. Funny how Hallmark impacts me and wants me to farm, love more, have snow and struggles with blessings abundantly known.. I love you Lord for actually being my Hallmark to life-- movie or no movie...

Yippie... Great Christmas!!
Family!
For all the weeks that lead up, the money spent, the chaos, the late nights, the wrapping, the busy stores and even the "fashion crisis" before church...It's ALL worth it!!!
I love you all and wouldn't trade any of it to NOT be with each of you.
God is good-- to bless me with an IMPERFECT family- called mine.
Good night, love you all, and can't wait for 2013- with chaos, Jesus and YOU, along for the ride!!

Sandy Hook Christmas Poem
In honor and remembrance of the children and
teachers of Sandy Hook Elementary school.
Twas' 11 days before Christmas, around 9:38,
When 20 beautiful children stormed through heaven's gate.
Their smiles were contagious, their laughter filled the air.
They could hardly believe all the beauty they saw there.
They were filled with such joy, they didn't know what to say.
They remembered nothing of what had happened earlier that day.
"Where are we?" asked a little girl, as quiet as a mouse.
"This is heaven." declared a small boy. "We're spending Christmas at God's house."
When what to their wondering eyes did appear,
But Jesus, their savior, the children gathered near.
He looked at them and smiled, and they smiled just the same.
Then He opened His arms and He called them by name,
And in that moment was joy, that only heaven can bring.
Those children all flew into the arms of their King,
And as they lingered in the warmth of His embrace,
One small girl turned and looked at Jesus' face.
And as if He could read all the questions she had,
He gently whispered to her, "I'll take care of Mom and Dad."
Then He looked down on earth, the world far below,
He saw all of the hurt, the sorrow, and woe.
Then He closed His eyes and He outstretched His hand,
"Let My power and presence re-enter this land!"
"May this country be delivered from the hands of fools."
"I'm taking back my nation. I'm taking back my schools!"
Then He and the children stood up without a sound.
"Come now my children, let me show you around."
Excitement filled the space, some skipped and some ran.
All displaying enthusiasm that only a small child can.
And I heard Him proclaim as He walked out of sight,
"In the midst of this darkness, I AM STILL THE LIGHT."

Left church feeling overwhelmed by the truth of Jesus forgiving ally sins. So refreshing to be reminded that I am NO BETTER than any sinner of any kind- we ALL need Jesus! My greatest prayer for my children is that come to fully understand and appreciate Jesus in their everyday, chaotic, hard and joyful lives and that they marry a Christian and raise children to love The Lord. What a gift our church is to our family and now, the Christian school portion too- gosh Jesus I know your abundant love for me, I know it like I know nothing else. I am humbled knowing I love ache and breathe for my kids and that you do even MORE than my capacity for them too and that they are YOUR kids, on loan to me. Gulp. That cuts me deeply that you love my kids even more than me. I Heather Ann Heggie want to live in YOUR will every hour of every day- thank you for encouraging me to do so- in a million different ways. Love, me

Agent 99 reporting back w " the hidden food in napkin caper"-- no one has fessed up yet- hmmm-- my clues have led me to the child that said these comments though " dinner last night just didn't taste as good as your cinnamon rolls; I wish we had that for dinner!" CSI Heggie is still investigating the scene...:-)

I really pray Lord to never take any of these regular Saturday mornings for granted dogs sleeping bacon and cinnamon roll icing dripping from my kids faces. Love u Team Heggie and Jon you are the perfect leader for our clan- love u honey. Thank you Lord for all of my abundant blessings.

I asked my Hannah (6years) "What would be the perfect day to you?" She replies " sitting around on the couch all day and having servants serve me and bring me everything I want all the time." I reply" Don't we already do that for you a lot?" :) She says " Yes, but I would be wearing a crown!" Only my Sparkles keeps the laughter going in our house like she does!

I can't exactly say authentically that I have the exact body I want, the job I want, the house I want or the behaviors/manners in my kids I want at all times--but I DO want the exact husband I have, the exact parents I have ( biological and married in) , the exact in-laws(2nd parents) I have, the exact best friend I have and the perfect 'God- given' children I have and the ONLY perfect Jesus I have-- My life is SO rich... And my cup overflows...abundantly. Thank you Lord for ALL that I have-- I give YOU ALL the glory. Love, Me

My precious kids-- with my time alone there is no place I would rather be than at the beach running and feeling, smelling and intentionally listening for dear Jesus to whisper to me in His perfect way. Only when alone and intentional do I seek the Lord with my whole heart. May you sweet children Sarah Luke and Hannah find your " sweet spot" with the Lord-- if you push it aside you rob Jesus of the joy He I tended to bring you- alone in His presence. My only wish or " goal" I have for all three of you is for you to have a personal relationship with the Lord in such a way it is your ONLY barometer for success and joy-- nothing else matters-- I promise( and swear on the bible!!) yes God's precious bible-

Hanging solo w my sweet boy tonight.. Asked him at dinner " what is a perfect day look like to you?" He answered honestly--one of the items he listed it included was "going to church." -i pondered knowing deep down it's not truly his favorite thing to go to church-- I smiled and he then says " mom I said that because I know it's important to you and Jesus and that's why its on my list even though I don't love going as much as you do"-- Luke Christopher-- you melt my heart and I'm proud to be your mommy!!

Just to keep it " real" with the Heggie's-- while Sarah (10) is enjoying all the 'Jesus areas' of her new school my sweet 6 year old Hannah got her " square" taken away in kinder class ( teacher chart) for spending too much time looking in the mirror at herself instead of coming back to listen to work directions...now that perfectly sums up our family dynamics-- "Vanity and Bible girl" 😜
My Sarah is loving her new school! She loves all the praying all day long--every start and stop and transition of the day the kids pray and share gratitude-- when they start school, snack, at technology class, at PE, before lunch, after- everywhere! She loves it and feels blessed to have such a Christ- centered environment called "school!"

Spent a great fun filled day in Children's hospital ER-- Luke scared to death to get stitches on his face- (shaking and crying) then afterwards thrilled that he had "wounds" to share on the first day of school Monday. Boys!!! They are crazy!!! BTW--I am SO very humbled EVERY time I am at Children's hospital and how so many families have gone through much worse thru those doors. ❤

Highlight for today- getting my kids their school uniforms and my Sarah getting her bible engraved right then that she gets to keep in her 5th grade class-- I am SOAKING UP that my kids will get to have Jesus in the classroom this next school year and I feel so blessed...
