Wow, that’s my Grandma! I have heard these stories many times. I can’t believe this is on a blog that I like to read. My Grandma is an AMAZING woman. She is the true definition of a servant, and she makes excellent cinnamon roles!

Thanks so much for the happy tales of a simpler time. My husband and I have a dear older couple in our lives that we have visited periodically throughout our marriage and the couple years preceding, and we’ve been so strengthened by what faith, trust, and persistent commitment to a simpler, non-materialistic life can do throughout a lifetime. We both feel more capable somehow because we know they’ve done it!

When my marriage broke up because of my husband’s alcohol and abusive behaviour I was forced to go to work fulltime. I have 3 children and I find it hard to keep up with everything I need to get done. Your post reminded me that God responds to simple faith and to rely on Him for all my needs. I hope one day to remarry and to be able to come back home full time.

This is challenging. It is important to know the proper limits of self-denial and be open to things we need. I have been too frugal in the past and regretted it. We bought an inexpensive house in an effort to live fully “within our means” (as if any debt such as a mortgage qualifies), and found ourselves very sick, living in a mold-infested house which was going to be difficult to sell. But God provides. And I realize now what a good thing it is that we went through so much tribulation. On the other hand, there are times when quality really does count and is hard to get for cheap.

I am blessed to be part of this family, married to one of her son’s for almost 31 years. She is now 85 and the real deal, as this story shares. She is an amazing woman. When her children were at home, she was the first one up and last one to go to bed. Her knees are used often as she is on them praying for her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
She makes everything from scratch, known for her cinammon rolls and she loves to extend her hospitality to others. Still today, she simply amazes me. Mom is the “Proverbs 31″ woman. She needs to write a book of her journey.
