Fancy Nancy

Has anyone heard of these books?  I hadn't until my friend Kathy told me about them this past weekend.   They are so cute and Maddie just loves them!  Maybe it's because Mad is just like Nancy, always wanting to be fancy!!

Little Nancy is a girl that is very fancy, loves using fancy words and dressing up fancy!  She thinks her family is boring because no one else wants to be as fancy as her!!  It's a great book for little ones and so much fun!  Check them out!!!


Here's one of the Reviews they had on Amazon..
PreSchool-K–Young Nancy, like her literary predecessors Eloise and Olivia, is a glamour queen dropped into a boring world–Nobody in my family is fancy at all. They never even ask for sprinkles. She determines to rescue her relatives from their humdrum existence by giving them lessons and accessorizing their mundane wardrobes. A situation that is charming when observed by adults in real life doesnt translate into a successful picture book. Children pretending to be fabulous creatures is appealing when it is innocent and unforced. This book, despite Glassers wonderfully energetic artwork, is ultimately a story told by adults for adults.–Kathleen Whalin, York Public Library, ME

Thanks everyone for the get better wishes.  Headache is gone this morning!  I was in bed by 9:30p last night which was a bonus of the migraine!  lol  I usually write something the night before and schedule it for the next day.

Yada Yada

Pin It I just finished a great book called The Yada Yada Prayer Group.  I was at the library last week and was chasing Maddie and once I caught her I just happened to look up and there it was!  It is an excellent read and very inspiring, such a feel good book.  It reminds you that we are all just sinners but by the grace of God we are all forgiven.  He loves us through everything, never leaves us and is always there for us.  We just have to be the ones to let Him in, praise Him for everything and take time to stop and listen to Him!  There is no hiding what you have done, even when you want to hide from it, He is always there and always knows but will always love us!  
It also reminds us that to help keep our faith strong we do need that extra support group even when we think our lives aren't as bad as others doesn't mean we still don't need prayer.  It humbles you a bit and reminds you that no one is perfect.  We need to take the time to sit and just be with God, tell Him our fears, our worries for ourselves and for others.  He works in mysterious ways and there are still miracles out there we just don't always look at them that way. 
I need to remember everyday to thank God and praise Him because I woke up that morning, with a loving husband that does the best for his family, that I have a beautiful daughter, (yes she might drive me nuts) that is here, happy and healthy and full of energy, ready to learn and see new things!  Thank God for what you have and be thankful for the house and vehicles or whatever you do have instead of wanting what everyone else has.  At least you have a place to lay your head.  


I can't wait to read the rest of her books!!
