Leap year only comes once every four years, and it seems like leap year 2012 wanted to be a memorable one because many many exciting things happened in the Heiner home; here they are: Anamarie loses tooth #5, and wakes up to $2 plus the "Leap Year Tooth". That's right, little miss Tooth Fairy told me to tell Anamarie that she gets to keep her tooth because it was...

I am thankful for Forgivness!~Maddy

I am so thankful that even If I make a horrible sin Heavenly Father will still forgive me!!! What would life be like If every time we did a sin and we wanted to forgive, but we couldn't. I would be in so much trouble at the judgment seat If Heavenly Father held me accountable for every little sin I have done! God promises us that every time we deeply forgive of our sins, He...

I am thankful for Temples! ~Maddy

Temples are such an amazing thing, for me they are just more proof that god lives and protects us, and wants us to live back with him in Heaven! It says that Temples are a tiny-tiny glimpse of what Heaven will be like. Whenever I see a picture of the temple I feel so relieved and comforted, and at that very moment I feel no need to think about the world around me, I just think...

Thankful for support, friends and service by Taylor

I'm very thankful for my family, friends, and service. I'm thankful for my family because they give me so much support. About 2 weeks ago the second term for school was ending and I was freaking out because my grades weren't the best. I had worked really hard in all my classes but my grades weren't turning out so great. On the last 2 weeks I worked so hard but my parents were...

I am thankful for a house to live in~Maddy

Every day coming home to a warm, safe house makes me so happy! Even though I may not talk about it very much, I truly am thankful for it! After years of being in church and school I learn so many dreadful stories of people that die from freezing weather and not having a roof over their heads, there are so much more stories that make me appreciate the home, time and area that...

William @ 19 Months old

Our little William is 19 months old! I know he is officially a toddler now, but he's holding onto his "baby" title as long as he can. He doesn't have any desire to talk. He's even decided to not say words he once said, like; "mama", "dada", "hello", "uh-oh". So I have decided to start teaching him sign language. We did this when Anamarie was a baby, and we loved it. So, we...

Snow Flakes in the Bedroom :)

Yes, this just happened!! Every day that goes by, I try to be patient when something like this happens. Anamarie was inspired by the beautiful snowfall last night, and wanted the same effect in her bedroom. With an entire roll of toilet paper, 15 minutes of freedom (while mommy vacuumed), and creativity, Anamarie's bedroom became as beautiful as outside. I wasn't...
