I am trying to prepare while at the same time, not spending too much time thinking on what is ahead. However, there are times when I can't comprehend that it's happening to me and I get a bit freaked out, but most of the time I am at peace with God's will for my life, knowing that being loved and cared for by my Heavenly Father is a beautiful place to be.<br /><br />I would love to hear how your friend manages to write so many books while being legally blind.<br /><br />Have a blessed Easter.Bonnie Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835257638506792143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-36767938474906998462017-04-16T13:31:26.960-07:002017-04-16T13:31:26.960-07:00Connie, it must have been an incredible experiennc...Connie, it must have been an incredible experiennce to come through Ellis Island and then become U.S. citizens. <br /><br />And thank you for your prayers. <br />Bonnie Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835257638506792143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-44182396997833761692017-04-16T13:28:27.001-07:002017-04-16T13:28:27.001-07:00Thank you, Apple Blossom.

That's mine, too. Of course by marriage. But, since my hubby is the only son of an only son of an only son, it's not all that common of a Swedish name. Please help my curiosity by explaining.<br /><br />I, too, have compromised vision, although different (glaucoma). But, it is scary to think we may not be able to see one day. As it says in Psalm 31:15 our time is in His hands. Praise God we trust him. By the way, you are entering a very unique and blessed time in your life. I am ten years older than you and only started publishing a few years ago. You will write many more books these next few years. I have another ACFW writer friend and prayer partner who is older than I and who is legally blind, but still publishes many novels. Perhaps we should form an Over the Hill, Compromised Writer group. LOL<br /><br />Blessings from the 'other' Bonnie (Engstrom)<br />PS ~ Because of my vision problems, I only read on Kindle where I can enlarge the text. But, I would love to win your book.<br />PPS ~ You beat me by two on the number of grandchildren!<br />Bonnie Engstromhttp://www.bonnieengstrom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-26316030920674641942017-04-15T08:44:22.257-07:002017-04-15T08:44:22.257-07:00Bonnie, thank you for sharing your thoughts.

One of my former co-workers was four years old when her family immigrated to our country from Lithuania. She is one of the most patriot people I have ever known because she watched her parents become U.S. citizens. Bonnie, I will remember you in my prayers.<br />Easter Blessings to you and yours!<br />Connie from KY<br />cps1950(at)gmail(dot)com<br />Connie Porter Saundershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09234596850866029756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-46524276851926755382017-04-15T06:29:30.029-07:002017-04-15T06:29:30.029-07:00oh, sounds so wonderful. thanks for the chance to...oh, sounds so wonderful. thanks for the chance to win. live in ND<br />apple blossomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03566321938955059922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-32825933010175809762017-04-14T18:56:16.214-07:002017-04-14T18:56:16.214-07:00Thank you, Bonnie.

Stephanie Grace Whitsom is a Nebraska author you would enjoy reading before you travel here. She is an author who lives here in our city. You can also see her on Facebook. I enjoy her writing, too. She gives a good "picture" of the early years in Nebraska.<br /><br />akayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07115965110123621781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-36630328234017776382017-04-14T17:49:34.304-07:002017-04-14T17:49:34.304-07:00Akaylee, I've never been to Nebraska, but I pl...Akaylee, I've never been to Nebraska, but I plan to visit many places I've never seen in the months to comme and hope to discover more about Nebraska. <br /><br />Thank you for your words of encouragement.
