Healthy Simplicity - Library Time

Library Time 65

On June 20, 2015 By mrsjschonIn Children, Family2 Comments

Disclosure: Affiliate Links This week I read two Oppenheim books. I don't usually read two in a row. I'm trying to dole them out to myself, but I was disappointed with the ending for The Illustrious Prince so I read another one - Jacob's Ladder. This one did not disappoint. It was almost pure romance …

I can't believe it's Friday already. This week has sped by. Next week will be the big push to finish all the packing and get the house clean. I'm actually looking forward to this next week of finishing up and organizing. I know school is out in the States. Here in Canada most schools go …

Summer Goals 2015

On June 18, 2015 By mrsjschonIn Random4 Comments

As I've mentioned before, I LOVE lists. I have so much going on. If I try to hold all of my "to-do's" in my head I'll forget something which will drive me crazy. Generally about twice a year I post a list of things I want to sew over the next few months. I was …

Moving Can Be Hard Emotionally

I've mentioned a few times that we're in the midst of packing up. In just a few days we'll be moving into a bigger house. Not just bigger, but one that we'll be sharing with my parents! I'm very much looking forward to this move, but I'm also discovering (again) that moving can be hard …

Healthy Simplicity - Hymns of Encouragement

No One Ever Cared For Me Like Jesus

On June 15, 2015 By mrsjschonIn encouragement1 Comment

Yesterday in church we sang this song. There is a beautiful and sad story behind this song.  How many times have we had a friend or even family member fail us. How comforting to find a friend in Jesus. Jesus never fails us.  This song was written by Charles Weigle. He was an evangelist and …

Healthy Simplicity - Library Time

Library Time 64

On June 13, 2015 By mrsjschonIn encouragement, Family2 Comments

Disclosure: Affiliate Links I have so many good books on the go right now. I'm reading Peace Child by Don Richardson. It's an excellent missionary story about a couple who took the gospel to a tribe in New Guinea who were still living as they had for millennia. Then I'm also reading The Illustrious Prince …

Welcome to My Blogging Home

Hello, I’m Jennifer. I’m a recently widowed pastor’s wife with eight children. Nothing really prepared me for the wonder and chaos of being a mother to eight or for the agony of losing my best friend. I use this blog to keep myself organized and to hopefully be an encouragement to Intentional Simplicityyou as well.
