    Hi, I’m Krista.

    Strategic communicator and storyteller.

    I am the wife of a very talented musician who takes me around the world in pursuit of excellence. Mama to Jakob, Audrey and Ella, who just happens to have Down Syndrome.
    And an aspiring disciple of Jesus, defender of the oppressed, writer, graphic designer and photographer.

    I write and speak on navigating through the fog of life…you know, when things don’t go exactly as planned and am fuelled by a passion to amplify the voices of those on the margins…
    oh, and coffee…lots of coffee.

An Ode to Grandparents

October 22, 2010

In all the world,
throughout all time,
there are few that can compare,

To the special people
in a child’s life
whose memories they do share.

Who laugh and play
and dry wet tears
and when the day is done

Send them straight home to Mummy
with a very full tummy
of ice cream and bubble gum.
