Jan Karon booksFor those of you who love Jan Karon books
I love Jan Karon’s writing and I’ve always been a fan of Victoria magazine (though I was disappointed when the magazine began to change in character in the early 2000s). I’m so happy Victoria is back to her old ways! Oh I’m just glad she’s back. Jan Karon has a beautiful website, by the way: Mitford Books. Wishing you a Beautiful Sunday, Lynn 2 comments to Jan Karon books |
Approaching-50 mother of four. Thrifter. Content with lots of clothes bought for very little money. Loves retro. (That could be styles from the 40s and 50s. And sometimes stuff even older than that. And sometimes stuff from all time, all mixed up together!) Bluffs about decluttering but secretly loves STUFF. Goes through stages. Has standing and staring spells before rearranging the entire home. Just because. Tune in each day to see what new outfit comes home from G.W. Boutique next. (That's Goodwill, by the way.) Oh, and she owns a spoiled beagle named Annie. And this blog.   <div align="center"><a href="http://www.amothersjournal.com" title="A Mother's Journal ~ A Bit of Birdsong"><img src="http://www.innatelygray.com/images/abitofbirdsong_120_200.jpg" alt="A Mother's Journal ~ A Bit of Birdsong" style="border:none;" /></a></div>    
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.

Jan Karon is one of my favorite authors. The Mitford books are so comforting! I will have to check out the Victoria magazine.
Hi, Amber! Isn’t Jan Karon totally inspiring with her wonderful books? Her own personal story is magical. I want to be a writer too when I grow up. And I will. She’s proof that you just don’t give up.
