About

Just like you, I am a person who “wears many hats.”  My hats include wife, mother, daughter, friend, confidante, and teacher.  I could also mention other ones like chicken wrangler, maid, mechanic, gardener, photography enthusiast, nature-lover, etc.  What gives me a merry heart is that, no matter which hat(s) I’m wearing at the time, I am always striving to be a christian first and foremost.  

At the beginning of 2015, my daughter asked me if she could start a blog.  My initial response was “Blog?  What’s a blog?”  I decided to check it out for myself first, and so began an interesting journey through cyberspace…

 This Merry Hearts Medicine site is my first attempt at blogging I hope it brightens your day, at least just a little.  On this site, you’ll find thoughts about happiness, thankfulness, relationships, photography, homeschooling, and other varied tidbits.  Thanks for stopping by!

I have added a page called “Reasons to Smile.”  It’s a place where we can share things we are thankful for and encourage one another.  Please check it out and share your ideas!  Thanks!
