Mrs. Lady Sofia said...

Miss Jen,

Hello. This is my first time to post on your blog. I found your blog through another blog (imagine that - smiles). I like how you write your posts in "poetic stanzas." I think that's unique as well as lovely.

Anyway, I'm probably one of your "older" visitors, but I am learning so much from younger ladies as yourself who are gifted, focused on the Lord, and kind. As a result, you will be seeing my name pop-up on your blog site on occassion.

Lastly, this is a lovely give-away! Did you make that gorgeous apron and pot holders? I think the apron is especially adorable! It would be a pleasure to win these items as I don't own an apron, and pot holders always come in hand in the kitchen (smiles).

Well, I have said enough. Take care, and have a blessed day!

Miss Lizzy said...

Hello Miss Jen!!
Your blog is truly in inspiration to me, and I can't wait for more!!
I would LOVE for you to enter me into your giveaway! You have made such pretty things!!

Can't wait for another year of Blessed Femina!

Blessings in Christ,

Miss Lizzy

This is a beautiful giveaway -- did you make all those lovely things?! I'd be tempted to say "when I grow up, I want to be like you" -- but I have the feeling you've got quite a bit of youth on me. :)

May you continue bringing glory to Him through your blog.
Thanks for being His tool. You are lovely.

Hi Jen,

Congratulations on the year of blogging!

Congratulations Miss Jen!
Time sure flys when you are having fun, and I can't think of one person who isn't blessed in some way once they start blogging. We are all very giving and loving people. That is what makes blogland so special.

I absolutely love this apron. My kitchen and dining room are red cherries, and this apron would be so beautiful in my kitchen. Potholders are always great to have too.

Thanks for sharing today. I have signed up to follow your blog. I can't wait to see what you have to share next. Please pop over and read my blog. I would be so honored to have you sign up to follow mine as well. Country hugs, Sherry

Gorgeous apron! I so would love to win it. I just decided that I was going to start collecting them after I got my first one a few months ago. Maybe they will give me super-domestic powers so I can get my act together? :)
