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 …

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 …
Fun, fun, fun. We're all busily packing still. Less than three weeks now. We're all getting very excited to move and settle into our new home. When I'm tired of packing and organizing the internet is a great distraction. ☺ This is a great post about not making life easy for your children and expecting …
