The story behind this picture: "my kids were so done with pictures they were NOT having a good time... so I told the camera lady to be prepared and snap whatever I wanted a picture of them having fun...
so I sat on the floor and told everyone to come sit or lay by mom and we were going to tickle each other and look at the camera best as we could.. she snapped that while we tickled and laughed... I hope to get one with all of our kids in it soon(she was expecting in this picture)!!!"

This is Heather!  With a beautiful family of 8 children, schooling the children through Ohio's home based school program, and being a Partylite candle consultant, I've broken Heather's interview questions into 3 sections...
  

Age:  34

Job Title:  Mother of 8

Favorite Part of Job:  Seeing all the differences and all the hugs and kisses I get each day!! As a child my Mother told me 'Patience is a virtue that you do not possess', so watching myself grow is very rewarding as well :)

What kind of ladies would you recommend this job to?  EVERYONE, however most people think we are crazy... I believe most people try harder to better themselves for their children!

A piece of knowledge you want other ladies to know about your job:  A large counter to spread out all the plates is essential!

What do you find most rewarding about having a large family?  I heard 2 sayings that fit.. 'Big is better'..and 'There is strength in numbers' :)  We are close, we laugh, help, clean, love, learn, play and even grocery shop together!!

What is a family activity that the children especially love to do?  Family vacations... we always discuss with the kids what they want to do.

A little about yourself you want others to know:  I am an only child, and I said I didn't want ANY children for years. Both my parents are deceased. I love to laugh. My husband says I'm a Diva.

What do you like to do when you squeeze in a few minutes to relax? Read, Cuddle with Jon, Scrapbook or Bubble Bath

Who is your role model, and why? My Mom was because she was funny, caring and very smart!

Even tho www.achocolatebouquet.com is relatively new, and does not yet have thousands of visitors, what would you like the whole world to know about your wonderful husband Jon?  We might not reach the entire world, but we want Jon to know that you are bragging about him as far and wide as you can!  :)  Jon is the most AMAZING angel God blessed me to have in my life!! He helps with everything, he was my rock when my Mother died, he puts my spoiled behind in place when I throw a fit, he is an incredible father, he is a fabulous Graphic Designer. Anyone that has met Jon will tell you great things about him!
