I'm Kristin.  I am a wife, designer, Christian and for now a SAHM.  My husband and I are parents to three kids- Dylan Archer, Kyler Jude and Noelle Rose. Despite the name, this isn’t a mommy blog and you won’t find sponsored content here. My target audience is actually my children when they grow up if they wish to reflect on their childhood so everything I share has them at the forefront of my mind and secondly those who wish to follow along my journey. I created this space to document my family's adventures and lessons I've learned along the way.  The Mom Jungle is a modern interpretation of both the family newsletter and scrapbook.  

I call this The Mom Jungle because motherhood is fun and messy, filled with laughter and sometimes heartache… it truly is a jungle out there!

This weekend was our church's first annual weekend retreat.  It was incredible!  I am inspired to live my best life and to renew my faith as that was the theme of the weekend.  The highlight for me was seeing our lovely church family dote on my boys.  I am indebted to this "village" that is helping shape the boys into godly men.

It was an honour to lead worship.  Even though I am no longer a pastor, I am grateful for opportunities to serve and utilize the gifts God has entrusted me with.  Randomly I discovered that both the guest speaker and my senior pastors have connections with some of my extended family.  Talk about one degree of separation!

My heart (and belly) are full!  I've made new friendships and strengthened others.  I'm already looking forward to next year.

Now it's back to real life... time to tackle a mountain of laundry! [#momlife]

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.
