Child’s Home Library Starter List

July 24, 2018

|

Krista

Anytime I get invited to a baby shower I know exactly what my gift will be, a starter home library. 

Books in the early years are truly priceless. Packed full of adventure, imagination, life lessons and character building, books are our child’s first portal into life on this planet, and there are a few boxes I make sure to tick along the way. 

Every time I buy the starter library set, the b...

Majoring in Motherhood

May 14, 2018

|

Krista

Mother's Day has always been a day of introspection for me. I find myself looking in the mirror and really reflecting on the changes that have happened. It typically starts with a quick thought about the Mother's Day before it, and then bit by bit how the year unfolded. Becoming a mother defined me in ways I could've never imagined before having kids, but what's really cool about it all i...

All blogged up and no time to write. #letstalk

Two kids. This is no joke my fellow mamas. If I ever made it seem like I had anything but utmost respect for mama's with more than 1 baby, please accept my sincerest apologies now. 

Since having Ash my world has been far from the same. Are things familiar? Yes. Are they easy? Nope. Not one little bit. 

In honor of #letstalk day, I thought I’d chime in with my own experiences. 

Like most peop...

Mama Guilt, ugh!

March 24, 2017

Krista

Ok, so this whole pregnant with a toddler thing ain't easy.

Since having good days and bad days mixed together, and my fate being decided each morning I wake up, I have been totally seizing the good ones the best I can. I admit, and Shane will vouch loud and clear for this, that I am a bit more irritable than my usual zen self. Sometimes, it's a lot more. The things that I could always br...

The Pregnancy Gods Have Responded

March 10, 2017

|

Krista

So it turns out, with lots of begging, whining and meditating, the pregnancy gods have answered my plea and taken away my nausea! I have even stopped taking my diclectin which I'm thrilled about because the added drowsiness was tough. I realize this may be temporary but I am taking the time to appreciate this chance to live a little again. We have gone back to our normal routines and Zinn...

Krista

This year the Zen Parenting Radio Conference highlighted nine themes and discussed them with us on the first night why they chose these themes and how we might integrate them throughout the conference that weekend, and into our communities once we go home. These themes are useful for any parent and provide thought provoking perspectives in how you want to show up in your day to day lives...

I have never been so useless in my life

March 2, 2017

|

Krista

Since I began this blog a year ago I had, until recently, not gone a week without blogging. Writing has always been my go-to thing. It's a natural way for me to express the thoughts that happen upstairs, and since deciding to start CAMPS and bring early childhood education and mindful living to parents, it was a way for me to talk to all of you, without the restraints of having to meet in...

Cathy Cassani Adams

Krista

Cathy Cassani Adams is a woman whom I have admired from a far for a couple years now. Even though I have only met Cathy once at last years Zen Parenting: Let's Get Real conference, I feel like her and I have many things in common. She is one of those women I can relate to through her words and writing, and someone I often turn to for virtual support, guidance and inspiration. Her podcast...

Lisa Chandler

January 8, 2017

|

Krista

Lisa Chandler is a not only a mindful mama, she is a super mama. I haven't seen the cape per se, but I know she has one somewhere. Having two littles under 4 is not the only reason she impresses those around her. What makes Lisa a truly inspirational mama is that she faces the toughest parenting moments, most of which some mama's couldn't even imagine, and does so with a truly grateful an...
