About Me

My name is Casey and I am the blogger behind The Heart of Home.  I started this blog back in 2011 as a way to document my creative undertakings but it has grown to be so much more over the years.  I think that is why the name is so fitting.  This blog isn't about any one thing but rather a collection of things related to life, home, family and the challenges we face each and every day.  So whether you are single or married, trying to start a family or you are a new or veteran mom, welcome!

In February 2016, I started getting personal on here.  It has been far more personal than I ever intended but I felt God was prompting me to share to give hope to women in the midst of some of the hardships that challenge our faith the most.  Infertility.  Medical Conditions.  Grief.  Sorrow.  Sometimes it's a sisterhood of suffering in these trenches and I would like nothing more than to be real and encourage you because I have been there.  Multiple times.  In some ways, I am very much still in it.  The challenges of the last two years could have easily left me wondering "where is God anyway?" but the Lord has been near through all of it.  He allowed our journey to be infinitely harder than I ever thought it should be but He also strengthened my faith in ways that would have been impossible without the trials.

In addition to writing about infertility and maternal health, I also enjoy sharing my latest creative pursuits.  I'm a DIY enthusiast and a bit of a travel bug so don't be surprised if you see a random post about a new place or project I'm tackling... or a new recipe for that matter.  

Whatever brought you here, thank you for stopping by.  I'm so glad you are here.
