The Family

This blog is about our journey as a family to live mindfully and consciously. We are earth keepers, spiritual seekers and life learners. Our experience is ever expanding and we do our best to live intuitively and wisely. (Stone dislikes me using labels like that but I think it helps us find like-minded friends.)

I’d like to introduce ourselves.

This is my baby bump and me. I’m about 11 weeks pregnant here and due in late June/early July with our third kidlet.

11 weeks

Our first born Solshine is strong and spunky. He’s a linguistic master who has a knack for charm and also continuously presses our parental skills–asking us to grow and learn along with him. He is one of our greatest teachers.

Koala is two and terribly terrific. He’s speaks in a unique Ewok babble and melts us with his carefree cuteness. It’s a good thing he’s so cute because it keeps us from being consumed by the craziness that is his busy, busy/ get in to everything/climb anything/push all the buttons/find all the Sharpie’s possible self.

Koala

Stone is my rock. He’s wildly funny and has endless amounts of energy, which is important considering he provides for the family, is an awesome housecleaner and loves roughhousing and adventuring with the boys. He’s a stone mason, student of the uke, diy enthusiast and dreams of seven layer pond systems that feed the world, clean gray water, and encourage wild nature. It’s called aquaculture.

Stone

We are looking to connect with like-minded families and individuals; a global community of sorts, where we can knowledge share and build upon each others’ wisdom and passions. If you’d like to participate please stick around and share your dreams with us.

PEACE

A resident stone carver! coool!! I can relate to your family so much! My husband is also my rock and I have 2 little children, similar ages as yours. I also had a water birth with my second.
