Library Time 49

Disclosure: Affliliate Links I read two good books this week. I've found a book that my middle children will enjoy - The Bad Beginning by Lemony Snicket (Can I just say I love the way that name trips off your tongue when you say it? ☺). It's the first book in a series called "A …

Friday File 8

On January 23, 2015 By mrsjschonIn Friday2 Comments

We've had such a fantastic week. Two of my little guys were given new legos sets so they've had a blast playing with them. The baby has been playing with legos too, and he's so cute to watch. He tries to act so big and grown-up, but when I'm nursing him he's still my baby. …

Today we're introduced to a new character in the story of Ruth - Boaz. Ruth 2:1-9 1 And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz. 2  And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, Let me now go to the field, …

Buttons – A Multi-Purpose Embellishment

On January 20, 2015 By mrsjschonIn Crafts, Sewing22 Comments

Quirky fact about me: I LOVE buttons. I buy them in bulk whenever I get a chance. My button box is overflowing so I also have button bags. I guess you could have figured that out just by looking at the top of this page.     I am always looking for ways to use …

Friday File 7

This has been a busy week for us - two birthdays. First my middle son, Micah, turned seven, and then four days later I had a birthday. There are rumours of a birthday cake being made for me this afternoon. It's nice when your children get old enough to plan a celebration for you. Micah …

Happy Birthday

On January 15, 2015 By mrsjschonIn RandomLeave a comment

Today is my birthday. My husband took me out for lunch which was so nice. One of the waitresses had to ask where the children were because she hardly recognized us without them. Anyway, during lunch I was remembering my most memorable birthdays. We didn't do every birthday up big in our home, but I …

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.
