Hi! My name is Caroline TeSelle. Currently, I live in Lemont, IL, a southwest suburb of Chicago.  I say currently,  because in 17 years of marriage to this amazing man:

greg teselleWe have moved 6 times and became parents to these amazing kids:

teselle kids 640x160Our beautiful family ~ Gunnar, Tygar, Stone & Eden

We are a close family & we strive to put the needs of others above our own.

I am a self-proclaimed dream cheerleader, but not the kind that stands on the sidelines to motivate the crowd, but the kind of cheerleader that cheers loudly from the stands.  I am a dream-encourager and cultivator.  Dreaming doesn’t come naturally for me but encouraging does.

I have been writing on this blog since 2007, sharing my passion of encouraging others through my writing {which I sometimes call daydreams} and very amateur photography.

A few random things about me: my nickname is CT. I am quiet-natured. I’m a TarHeel. I love to read. My husband and I make a great cooking team – I marinade, he grills. I love dark chocolate. I am the proud owner of Joon.

One more very cool thing ~ I get to work with Nester as her virtual assistant:
