Minnesota Chapter of the EcoMom (TM) Alliance & the Zero Waste Lunch Company

In the morning I leave for 3 days in the woods with my child and her Continuous Progress Family. I am excited to be in the woods and unplugged with her classmates, teachers, and parents. This Mother’s Day, I am again reminded that it is those “thin places” between this life, and whats to come that really matter.

When I child gives you a handmade paper ribbon award that says, “#1 Mom” with the 1 written backwards, I am accutely aware that “this is it.” This is what matters most…Love. It is in the midst of the chaos and is seen clearly only in those thin places where the lines are blurred between humanity and the divine.

For me, nature provides an abundance of “thin places” experiences. I am excited to see what is to come.
