Library Time 21

On March 9, 2014 By mrsjschonIn Uncategorized2 Comments

It's Saturday again already so that means another look at what we've been reading. I read this great book - Some Hats, Some Girls and Hitler by Trudi Kanter. I bought this with my birthday gift card and only paid $6.00 - bonus. It's about a lady who was a milliner in Vienne and how she got …

Library Time 20

 This week I downloaded a book that a friend of mine wrote - The Adventures of Little Angel. It's a sweet children's book about a little angel and what she does in Heaven and her favourite story about Jesus dying on the cross for our sins. There's another one as well that I plan on …

On February 2, 2014 By mrsjschonIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

I just learned of a giveaway that you might be interested in...Fifteen books by eleven Christian authors. $5 Starbucks gift card. A booklight. I've read one of the books - Annabeth's War - and truly enjoyed it. Check it out. This would be a fun giveaway to win.

Library Time 18

I really haven't had much time to read this week. Between working on my husband's birthday party and organizing things in our home I've been too busy to read. As well, I've been restless in my reading. I can't seem to settle into any book. I've started a couple but neither really grabbed me. I'm …

Library Time 16

On January 4, 2014 By mrsjschonIn Uncategorized2 Comments

Early in December one of the bloggers I follow - The Humbled Homemaker - did a post on planning her reading for 2014. That inspired me to do the same. Last year I bought quite a few ebooks. I wrote out a list of what I wanted to read this year and came up with …

Library Time 15

On December 22, 2013 By mrsjschonIn Uncategorized2 Comments

I'm still enjoying my Kindle. I truly did not think I would like reading books electronically, but I do. I still like my paper books, but I probably use my Kindle more. It is just so easy and convenient, and I can read in bed with the lights out...not that I often am awake long …

Library Time 14

On December 1, 2013 By mrsjschonIn Uncategorized2 Comments

This has been a difficult week for me sleep-wise. The baby has not been sleeping well. I say all this to explain my reading for this week. I've been reading what I call "brain candy" - novels and not the greatest quality either. I've just been too tired to do any deep thinking when I …

Mishmash

On August 10, 2013 By mrsjschonIn Children, Family, Friday, Gardening5 Comments

This will be a little bit of a mishmash of "Fruitful Friday" and "Library Time". Yesterday I was tired and just basically spent the day hanging out with my children watching movie and eating ice cream cones which could explain the higher numbers on the scales this morning. Anyway, we had fun and every once …

Homemade What?

On July 6, 2013 By mrsjschonIn Baby, Food, FridayLeave a comment

This has been a momentous week for us. Our baby has his first tooth, and we "officially" started him on solids. We'd been giving him tiny, tiny nibbles here and there, but this week we actually bought some organic applesauce for him. I also made him some homemade "cheerios". Yep, you read that correctly - …

Lots of reading going on here with school being out. Well let's face it, even when school is on there's lots of reading going on here. 🙂  Myself - I read a Grace Livingston Hill book this week that I downloaded for free on my Kindle...The City of Fire. Grace Livingston Hill started the Christian …

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.
