Empty Shelf Challenge – March

Posted on March 19, 2014 by jackiestyle

I knew this challenge would be hard. I started with a bang and have been dragging the last month or so. BUT, I am still moving forward, inching maybe but moving forward. Here’s the latest I’ve finished.

The Blessed LIfe was a little harder for me to get through not because it’s a hard read but it worked on my heart along the way so I took my time in taking it all in.

And because I am a mom and read about 20-30 minutes each kid I will include all these Junie B. Jones books C boy and I have been reading since the new year. These books crack us up.

I’m looking forward to the next book I’ve decided to re-read. I think it will help me keep on task.

Progress – Empty Shelf Challenge

Posted on January 13, 2014 by jackiestyle

I am excited to share that I have been able to read a couple more books.

My big boy and I have been enjoying the Dragonbreath series and had finished every last one last year. For Christmas daddy found the most current book in the series. C boy wouldn’t let me put it on my empty shelf. He doesn’t think it counts, but I read every word. 🙂 If you have a 1st/2nd grade boy in your life I would bet they’d enjoy this series.

My son doesn’t think this should count. But I read every page of it.

This book was a Birthday gift from a sweet friend. On relationship marketing. I really enjoyed it and hope to implement some of the ideas soon. Another easy read in story form.

Birthday Gift

The book I am currently reading is really good and is challenging me to thinking about what it means to bless others. Not going as quickly as I find myself really thinking about what I am reading. That’s a good thing.

Have you gotten any further on your reading?

A New Year – Full of Hope & Promise

Posted on January 1, 2013 by jackiestyle

A year ago I decided to start blogging. It was a fun adventure with ups and downs and LOTS of learning curves. I am sorry I have been MIA lately. Some family and health things have kept me from taking the time to sit down and pour out my thoughts on fashion, food and family. I hope you will forgive me. I have a plan for the New Year and hope to have some balance in this area. I miss it and you.

Praying for a year full of hope, promise, blessings and health for you and yours.

Family – May Photo a Day 13 – Mum

Posted on June 23, 2012 by jackiestyle

I am already in trouble, I just know it. I am not suppose to post this photo of my mom and I as per request of my dad. So, if you are reading this and know my family please just keep it our little secret.

My “mum” is one of the most important people in my life. I have learned about my faith from her sitting on her lap and listening to stories about Jesus. And seeing her love for Him as an great example. She’s stood by me through thick and thin. Held me in my childhood and adulthood through deep grief. We have laughed ourselves to tear more times than I can even count.

13. Mum Here is the women who gave me life. I love her so.

Love my mom!

I could not do a post on mums without mentioning my hubbies mom. She has raised 5 kids (1 girl, 4 boys). My head spins just thinking about that. She did such a great job raising those kids. I am so blessed by the friendship we have. I am happy to call her mom.

Mum in law

These were taken Mother’s Day.

Faith – May Photo a Day (16, 29)

16. What you’re reading Part of the “requirements” for my mastermind group has been for us to read a book of Proverbs before each time we meet. This is the one I was reading the week of the 16th. This is my favorite portion:

What you’re reading – Proverbs

29. A Number One of the most important numbers… John 3:16. This number gives me my faith, hope and salvation. It is a number of promise.

A Number – 3:16

What is your favorite verse?

Faith – May Photo a Day 1. Peace

Posted on May 27, 2012 by jackiestyle

Happy Day! I have made it into the same month which the photos have been taken. Happy Dance.

1. Peace When I really need to feel peace or I am seeking peace I head to my Bible and look for a quite moment. With two little boys this is not always easy. The angel was a gift from a friend. It is a book mark I keep it in my Bible.

Peace – From God.

Where do you find peace?

Faith – April Photo a Day – Something Your Grateful For

Posted on May 4, 2012 by jackiestyle

I am grateful for a great many things. On tough days I don’t always remember all of them. I do remember how grateful I am for my faith. That I get to practice my faith and beliefs safely. Talk about and display it openly. I would not be very far if I didn’t have my faith.

24. Something your Grateful for My Faith. The Bible. Jesus.

Faith

What are you grateful for?
