I'm turning thirty in just over a year.
About Me
- Krista
- I am a thirty-something daughter, sister, wife, Covenant College graduate, and friend...and now a mom(!). I like Calvinism, chocolate, carbohydrates, and moonlit walks on the beach. I am bilingual (es runaju Latviski). I'm an ENFP married to an ISXJ. Oh, and I am a transplanted Coloradan living in the South.

It should be educational, influential, or otherwise important.
My 30 Books should be at least somewhat well-rounded.
I won't read anything that's not good for me.
...more rules to come.
