Life As A Conscious Mom

Caidin got a bag full of foam bits and beads at a birthday party. It’s been sitting in our ‘catch-all’ draw for several months now, but a few nights ago (as a bedtime delay tactic) he got it out and asked me if he could put it together. I asked him what he would need…

Although I promised I would be back this week with Tuesdays Naturally, I would rather share my morning conversation with Caidin which was about the attacks on the United States, September 11th,  2001.  It started out a conversation about actions and evolved into a conversation about tolerance and freedom.

At one point he came downstairs with tears in his eyes saying ‘I can’t remember anything. I don’t even…

On Sunday, Chuck and I tend to watch Face The Nation and The McLaughlin Group. Caidin is usually sitting nearby playing with his toys or reading. From time to time he will ask us a question about something someone has said, but in general he doesn’t appear to be paying attention. The other night Caidin…

Happy Labor Day. Wait is that right, do we wish each other a ‘happy labor day?’ Caidin wanted to know what Labor Day is and why we have it. Off to google I went. I get stuck in the details. I understand the broad concept, or with words for example, I know how to use…

When I look at today’s children I see amazing beings. They are powerful, they are compassionate, they are forgiving, they are intelligent and many of them run at really high vibrations. Of the many gifts today’s children have, the ability to manifest what they want is a gift that is in some cases is almost…
