Heather lives in beautiful Eagle, Idaho where she and her husband Roman raised their 8 children. Her journey to become a mom of 8 has been a bumpy one that has included infertility, being a foster parent, adoption, and special needs parenting. She now has a big family of 2 biological children and 6 adopted children. Reading stories was an important bonding and teaching time with her own children. Now as an award-winning and best-selling author, Heather loves to write stories that teach important lessons in a way that children and adults will both enjoy them. Her books include I Can Sleep When the Wind Blows, The Blomes and The Smooms and the Impossible Bridge, and Into Justin's World.
