About Me
- heidi r weimer
- Nashville, Tennessee
- I am a 30-something nose-ringed mom to ten-going-on-something stellar kids (4 via my belly and 6 via adoption from Ethiopia), wife to one heroic husband, children's book author, lover of justice, adoption promoter, and sold-out follower of Jesus. My mantra: "My life is not my own." And one day that will be my tattoo. Maybe.

AMEN! I know a mother that when people would ask- she looked to her child if her child said sure and shared then fine, but if she went silent- her mom simply replied- I guess she doesn't want to share her story. Sometimes they need privacy :) Totally agree!
I agree. I may have to "borrow" your words. You are very quotable today. Thanks for sharing.
