Treasuring Emma (Middlefield Family, #1)Treasuring Emma by Kathleen Fuller

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Treasuring Emma By Kathleen Fuller
I was so happy I was able to read this book that I received from book sneeze for review (ebook copy). I mostly read christian fiction/romance and this one did not disappoint. I loved all the characters and the way the author has the ability to create the atmosphere of the culture.

This is the Story of Emma an Amish girl who has just lost her mother to cancer. Emma lives with her Grandmother and is starting to worry that bills are piling up.

Emma is faces with many things that test her faith in God , one being Adam who had left the Amish way of life to live in the city . When Adam left he broke Emma's heart now he has returned to the community but will he stay for a short time or stay for good. Emma is very protective of her feeling and is not willing to trust Adam and he is not sure of anything these days.
On top of all this Clara, Emma's sister who is married with children has insisted Emma turn their grandfathers work shop into a fabric store to generate income for both families. Emma is not sure she wants to do this and this causes conflict in the family. Than their is the mysterious relative come to stay with Clara and her family. Mark is his name and he seems to be the perfect Amish man but are look deceiving.
This is a inspiring story of an Amish Family in crisis and how they overcome the many problems they face with a renewed faith and trust in God . Treasuring Emma has a bit of everything even a compelling mystery,with very exciting turn of events that make it a fantastic read . This is an excellent story and I would recomend it to anyone who enjoys Christian Fiction/romance/mystery

7th Generation and yo Baby review





I was lucky enough to be picked for the 7th Generation sampling program which also came with the stonyfield farm yo baby yogurt.
Since some of my friends children are allergic to my cat I had my party away from the cat hair lol. My Party went really well and was just awesome and I thank moms meet. 7th Generation and Stonyfield farms for the great samples and coupons. we had it on the 9th of July and everyone loved the 7th Generation samples and coupons and the yo-baby,yo-kids and yo-toddlers coupons. I bought some of the yo-baby drinkable yogurt so my party goers could sample it. everyone thought it was very tasty even the grown ups.
I was able to try out a few of these products for myself too. I really thought the 7th generation dishwasher detergent worked really well at getting even the dirtiest dishes clean and doing it all with out harmful chemicals.
I am also in love with the laundry detergents and liquid dish soap for times when I don't need to run the dishwasher.

My friends who had babies were really happy to get some samples of yogurt,laundry detergent and liquid dish soap,and I'm already hearing how fantastic they think everything is.
We also loved everything from Stonyfield Farms. I love the fresh taste of their yogurt.. very smooth and fresh tasting.
I think these products are really great for families with small kids who will benefit from the nutritious Stonyfield farm yogurts and drinks.
With the 7th Generation products kids who may or may not be allergic to harsh chemicals and heavy perfumes will benefit from all the products they make that are safe and healthy.
Some of the ideas we discussed at the party I would like to share with you here for healthy kids and families.

Step one avoid Pesticides.try and choose natural pesticides they are making more of these everyday.
step2 Use non-toxic products - read your labels everyday products such as cleaners and even some baby products have harmful chemicals in the
step 3 - clean up you air -open windows to let in the fresh air, indoor air is typically more polluted than outdoor air.
step4 eat healthy -choose certified organic products for young children and babies. whole foods are optimal.
Step5 many Plastic are made with toxic chemicals that can be absorbed by your food and drinks, or even released into the air,use alternative to plastics as much as possible. you can learn more at
Healthy child org


Now, here are a few things I did not, know thanks to my party I learned a lot.
Did you know you could be getting harmful chemicals from plastics because you are using plastic items in the microwave. YIKES thats nasty.
Did you know that children exposed to pesticides have a higher chance of getting ADHD -switching to organic foods can go a long way to preventing this problem, I only wish I knew this when my son was little, he had severe ADHD.

Thanks so much for reading my post here are some links so you can continue to learn more about how to keep a healthy home.I would encourage you to like the following fantastic products on facebook and twitter.

book review The Apothecary's daughter By Julie Klassen

The Apothecary's DaughterThe Apothecary's Daughter by Julie Klassen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a really awesome Story of Christian Fiction. I am such a fan of Julie Klassen as I have read 2 of her wonderful stories so far and they are both outstanding.
I loved everything about this story. The characters were very real and the plot really interesting.
This story has everything Mystery, romance,excitement and flawed families.

In the story we meet Lilly Haswell the apothecary's daughter. Reluctant to spend her life as such, she gets an offer to travel to London to live with Her aunt and uncle, to find a husband and experience life away from her simple village.
This is where the story takes off and you are expecting things to go well with Lilly, however, a sudden letter from a family friend has her rushing back home to once again do something she does not want to do.
This story has so many levels and so many interesting turns you will not want to put it down. you have Lilly's flawed family and the search for a mother that left her a long time ago. you have her brother who is not quite right mentally and need constant support. you have her father who is suffering from some unknown health issue and needs her to run the apothecary.
Also Lilly has many admirers, from a family friend to a London doctor to the competition across the street or the wealthy land owner ,Who will finely be the one true love of her life.
expect the unexpected and read as Lilly finely realizes that faith in God and forgiveness are required for happiness and to be able to truly love with all your heart
