Author Archives: Heather Hamilton (TJZMommy)

Last weekend, we planned a family day at Wonderland…it was a rare day that Paul wasn’t working and we were all looking forward to a great day together. We had even talked the boys into going on their FIRST roller coaster!

Do you ever miss your husband? Even though he lives in the same house and sleeps in the same bed? I do. Last week, my sister offered to take the boys for a playdate and sleepover to allow Paul and I to have some time together. I’m so truly grateful that she knew how much we needed this….even more than we knew it ourselves. We were so excited to have a date! Paul surprised me with tickets to see “Fela” at the Canon Theatre. We planned the night to include a great dinner at Baton Rouge before the show. The … Continue reading

I am so lucky….my 7 year old has ALWAYS love books and continues to have a joy for reading anything…science, adventure, graphic novels and now he is tackling Harry Potter! So, when we were asked to go visit a IndigoKids with a $50 gift card….we were so excited!  Timing couldn’t have been better, as we were just about to embark on a 2 week road trip and we needed some new books for the journey.  I gave both my boys $25 to spend in the store and get something to take away on our summer adventure.  I admit, that I knew … Continue reading

When I was asked to join the panel of women putting together this year’s She’s Connected Conference, I was surprised…and honoured. Am I really digitally connected?  Well the answer is YES!  I have had the pleasure of working with amazing brands through PTPA and with Zack’s Dream Room and I’ve been so impressed with how some brands just seem to “get” the importance of reaching out to their consumers using social media.  Generous brands even connected with me, after reading our story, to see how they could get involved in raising money for the charity in my son’s name.  How … Continue reading

I was so excited to be asked to be PTPA tester for HOPELight magazine.  I waited patiently for our 3 magazines to arrive! As a mother of a special needs child, I was always on the search to find tools to find ways in which to teach and connect with my son.  When the monthly magazine arrived with Zack’s name on the front, I was eager to see what was inside.  The personalization of the magazine made it so special for me as a mom and I know older children would also find this a special treat when it arrived in the mail. While … Continue reading

After the loss of my little Zack, I'm finding inspiration in giving back to the community that supported him and us. Raising money for Zack's Dream Room, writing my blog and spending time with my two boys is where I'm finding joy in every day. I love being part of the PTPA Team!
