New Baby Idea!
Here is a wonderful idea submitted by consultant Heidi Arave. The best thing about decorating your home with Heritage Makers, other than the customization, is the cost! Anyone can do this!

What's new video
So, I hope this works properly - it's like having my own commercial! My next attempts at posting videos will be more about how to actually get things done, and i will post some inspirational ideas for home decor projects, etc.
Thanks for looking!

My first time!
Well, I finally did it - this is my first blog, ever! I never thought I would do such a thing, but I guess it is time to join the 21st century!
My focus is primarily storybooking and preserving our heritage. I don't feel it is too far from my focus of the past twenty years - lactation counseling and helping new parents feel good about their new role in life.
I believe in the power of story. I believe that our children have a better sense of themselves when they know where they come from. I believe we all desire to know more about our ancestry. I believe in the awesome power of community. I believe that "photos without stories are memories lost" (by Dr. Sharon Murdoch). I believe it is a tragedy that we are losing our heritage and sense of belonging.
So, I am now happy to say I have found another new role to enjoy - that of Heritage Maker. I feel good about helping others to re-discover their own heritage as well.
I hope this blog will be useful to those who want to learn more, be inspired, and to see what is new on the horizon. And above all, I hope this is fun!
