Susanna's Christmas Wish

I just finished reading 'Susanna's Christmas Wish' by Jerry Eicher.  This book is just one more in a line of books by Jerry that is amazing.

Susanna and her husband, Herman, are newly weds starting their life together.  Susanna has her family traditions and Herman has his.  They are not the same traditions.  Susanna is mad because Herman doesn't want to share her family traditions.  She prays that God will help her come to terms with it.

Susanna's former boyfriend, Matthew, comes back into town to celebrate the holidays with his brother and family.  Herman does not like the fact that Matthew is back and has to sort out his feelings.  Herman stays out late one night in the cold and snow, and he gets sick.

You will have to read the rest of the book to find out if Susanna gets her wish and if Herman overcomes his jealousy.

I received this book free from Harvest House Publishers to do a review.  I am not getting paid for my review or forced to give a good review.

I give this book 5 stars and would highly recommend it.

Keep up the good work Jerry Eicher.

Where Love Grows

I love reading stories about the Amish and their lifestyle.  This book is just another wonderful book by author Jerry Eicher.

'Where Love Grows' is the third and final book in the 'Fields of Home' trilogy by author Jerry Eicher.  This book continues the story of Teresa and Susan.  Teresa is finally getting married to her Amish boyfriend and starting a life with him.  Susan is trying to forgive her boyfriend, Thomas, and is hoping they soon will be married.

This story also deals with Menno Hostetler, Susan's daett, and his past which is becoming his present. There are many twists and turns in this book but they show the love of Da Hah by the Amish.  That's God to us Englisha's.  I am looking forward to reading many more books by Jerry Eicher.

I don't want to tell too much.  You will just have to go out and buy the book and read it for yourself.  You will be glad you did.

I'm here

I am just now trying to get back into the groove of things.  Had some medical problems that are still trying to be worked out.  I'll make it though. 

It's hard to believe that it is already August.  This past 7 months that I have been in TX have flown by so fast.  I've found a great Church to attend and I've made some wonderful friends.  God put me in TX for a reason and I'm thinking it was to get closer to Him.  It worked.

I haven't been able to work yet but I do have activities I attend regarding Church.  I have been truly Blessed.

I miss my 2 grandboys.  They are getting so big.  I talk to them as often as I can on Skype.  The little one, Lorrance, always has a big smile when he sees me.  Aubrey, the older one, wants to talk all the time.  I'm so glad Skype was invented.  I'd be lost without seeing those 2 boys.  Here is their most recent pic.  Aren't they cute?

Time for me to get something done so I will stop for now.  Have a wonderful day all.
