Welcome to the Hickstionary, a landing spot for all things H family.
I'm Heidi. He's Rusty. And together we have our beautiful babe, Beckett and a furry menace, Dakota.
I mostly use this space to brag about how awesome the kid is, whine about how naughty the dog is & share an occasional deep thought.
Thanks for hanging out with us as we figure out this [blessed] life!

If you are looking for my photography blog (where words don't tend to fall out of my mouth nearly as freely), visit {captured by} heidi.

As a mom. As a teacher. As a human being....

I don't have any words.

I cant begin to wrap my mind around what has happened in our country this week and I have no idea how those families will begin to heal.



But I know Who does.






I also know I like to hold on to things (and people) tightly. My friend Ang is always good at reminding me that everything ('my' people included) belongs to Him.  It's not ours. and never has been anyway.

And as big as our dreams are (for ourselves, for our children, for the people we love),


His plans are


bigger.



I don't have any words for what happened. But (I think along with the rest of the country) have been praying non-stop and holding my little close. And somehow, that feels like enough.
