Everywhere I look …

Does everyone have a baby except me?

OK, yes, I am over-dramatizing a smidgen a lot. But it has been one of those weeks where it seems everyone you talk to is either pregnant or just had a baby.
The biggest shocker came yesterday, when I found out my former babysitter’s daughter now has a six-month-old. Wait, you need more details for this to be shocking. OK, my old babysitter is maybe 40, and her daughter is 18. 
Hmm. This might be coming out badly. It’s not that I wanted to be a teen mom, yeeps. 
Anyway, I guess it was just the most surprising preggo/mothering news of the week. The rest were all regular marrieds, friends of friends, strangers on the street, etc. I am seeing/hearing about it everywhere … or is it because I am thinking of it so much?

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m a writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 12-year-old son and a 10-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep them from taking over my life. Creating things helps.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time with her writing. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
