Divine Grace

I enjoyed  this  book as it  was  a true  story. Lona  shows  that  faith  in  God  pulled  her  through  when she lost her  husband  to a  sad  divorce and  almost  lost her daughter to rebellion.   Follow   this teen  age  girl in her journey to true faith  in God. If you have  a  child who is  rebellious ad won't  do anything  you ask then this  is  a good  book for you. Not a book on parenting advice to tell you exactly what  to do . This  one is  a  true  story  and you can learn a lot  of  lessons of how  during her time  of grieving  for  her  husband she had  to take  on a new  roll of  parenting all alone.

This book points to God' grace  and gives  him all the  glory.

Thank you Olive  press  for the  book to review.

To cute for words


9780804185196

I love the idea behind this book but as one reviewer stated gluing on eyes can be dangerous for kids. These hats should only be worn when an adult is around.  Nancy Neilsen's GRAMMA NANCY'S ANIMAL HATS is not only a pattern book for hats but also booties. I really anted to use this book and thought it was for knitting but it is not but for crocheting. I will have to save this book and defiantly lean this new art. Haply some can be made by knitting so my sisters and I will do these!

I love the concept behind this book!Knit up the cutest little animal hats and booties, including a pair of elephants, a cheeky monkey, and an adorable bunny hat with matching paws.  Actually it was the front that caught my eye since I love chickens. This would make perfect kids for mothers expecting !The book features matching booties and animal hats to make for a newborn or infant.

Motherhood book worth owning!

This book is such a beautiful resource, more than what I expected! I debated giving it away to a young lady jsut getting married but decided against it and will keep hoping that some day I can use it  Lord  willing!  This book full of quotes drew me into it. Each chapter opens up with info about what is happening at the time of  life thus it celebrates the beauty of motherhood and pregnancy with neat 3D images of a baby`s growth each week, web links to ultrasound videos, advise on proper nutrition and the need for different vitamins, and stories from other mothers.  In fact I find this a beautiful gift and would not mind ordering this as gifts for others but I will treasure my copy where I will be able to write info about my pregnancy some day!   I enjoyed all of the different categories throughout the book, and think the calender  at the back is  neat idea. It even comes with stickers to place on the days  important things happen! 

From the Back Cover
