I love reading Amish novels - they are so full of Gods Word, recipes and quilting, all the things I love to live a simple domestic life. Ive visited the Amish communities a few times now and as a community they really inspire me to live the way they do. Putting God first and loving each other. Although <br />not the 4am start to their day!

To have everything all in one place will be so great. Have you seen Hallmark’s Ultimate Gift movie series? It’s based on a book series also called The Ultimate Gift written by James Stovall. I got the books on Kindle free at different times. It is really thought provoking and makes you want to be better, do better things in your life.

It isn't as if you don't show them constantly, or as if I haven't disliked the plain covers. =P Sometimes I need to be hit over the head with an idea, I guess! Your covers, and your stitcheries, are each perfect for their notebooks. Thank you. I really appreciate your telling your categories, because it showed me a couple I could expand into. <br /><br />Janette Oke - read anything! I've read every book, and watched all the ones made into movies, series, or otherwise available. Definitely uplifting and so many times it made me reflect on things in my life - how they'd happened, how the Lord had show Tender Mercies to me during them, and how they'd changed and developed me.Susan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09159163720029661287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-63054494246382806942018-02-21T09:26:10.063+10:002018-02-21T09:26:10.063+10:00I love how organised you are, I used to be but sin...I love how organised you are, I used to be but since my eldest daughter shifted back home 6 months ago and we share the household duties, (I work and she's at home expecting her first child, my first grandchild) we both do things a little differently I have had to learn to let a few things go for the sake of peace. I like things a certain way and she's not as fussy as I am, a learning curve for both of us!!! Keeping your daughter in my thoughts. <br />I love that movie series!

I am grateful that you are structuring your homemaking in a way that is helping you so much! In the past, I have tried doing this method. It just did not work for me but it is so kind of you to offer your suggestions and methods with others. Hopefully guiding them to a method that will work for them also. Your stitchery and fabric choice for your lovely new binder cover is so lovely. Thank you for sharing your brilliant projects with us! I will definitely keep Blossom and the entire family in my prayers as the great event is drawing close! Take care Dear Jenny.

We are in a very busy time just now with big decisions to make as our life seasons change and I enjoy the calmness of your beautiful blog. I am going to follow your example of having just one household folder. I think it’s a good idea as at present I have several. You way makes good sense.<br />Thank you again I thoroughly enjoyed today’s post and will pray for your daughters safe delivery of her precious little one.<br />Blessings Gail.gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11474172270399240621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-81002288765534237282018-02-21T04:42:56.457+10:002018-02-21T04:42:56.457+10:00So glad it was a false alarm with Blossom!!

I devoured them all and owned many of them when we lived in South America, but didn't bring them back to Canada with me. Love Comes Softly is the first one, I believe, and is full of homey scenes and a tale of love on the prairies. I often see her books in thrift stores. I think you would enjoy them a lot and hope that you can find them in Australia.

My husband & I watch it together. I also have a weakness for fiction. I have a very long list of favorites but I'll keep this one brief. <br /><br />Favorite authors....<br />Anything Jane Austen - my favorite is Persuasion<br />Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte' - I really love reading Jane's inner struggle with right & wrong. It's very well written<br />Francine Rivers - My favorite of hers is 'The Last Sin-eater'. It's set in the Appalachians. I grew up there & some of the culture in the book is familiar to me. The story is powerful.<br />Grace Livingston Hill- These are older books that my grandmother read when she was young. The language is outdated & they're very 'proper' but I fell in love with them as a teenager through my grandmother & read them occasionally when I want a sweet clean story. <br /><br />I read constantly & have to exert some self-discipline with it or I neglect important things!<br /><br />Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00305409125105992525noreply@blogger.com
