🤠 Honoring Dad Manly — A Week of Tears, Memory, and Moving Forward 🐎
This past week has been a roller‑coaster for me. My step‑dad, Manly Maedel, of the past 56 years, passed away. He served his country for about 25 years—just a bit longer than my character Charlie. Dad's character is reflected in my character Bruce in this Trilogy. In Volume One, you even get to meet the animal‑loving side of Dad Manly, along with his innovative, hardworking nature. Hopefully you’ve noticed those touches as you’ve read Smile‑Mile Inheritance. The next two volumes reveal even more of his loving, caring, yet down‑to‑earth workaholic side.
It’s so important to get Smile‑Mile Inheritance on the trending side of the market so we can move on with the whole Trilogy. The family is gathering for Dad’s “graduation party”—his celebration of life on March 7th—then I’ll be getting back into the harness to make that happen, with the Good Lord’s help, of course. Truth be told, my new marketing project is already in the planning stages.
Until then, I’m trusting you folks to keep up the good work of sharing my Trilogy with your friends and co‑workers.
Take care, and may the Good Lord continue to bless you and yours.
Love hugs — Grama Jean

🌼 First Responders of the Heart — A Reader’s Tribute 🌼
As I was posting on Facebook last week, I noticed that my niece, Juanita, was once again one of the first to respond. That sparked a sweet memory of her enthusiasm when I first announced the launch of Smile‑Mile Inheritance on Amazon. She didn’t just “like” the post—she called me immediately. In fact, she was driving at the time and pulled over to the side of the road so she could talk, get the details, and order the book right then and there.
🌼She was The First to order my book.
Since she lives up in Montana, promising to sign her copy was a big deal. We solved that by mailing her a large sticky label—author signed—to place inside the front cover. She added it with pride and sent me a photo of herself holding the book. I’m sharing that moment with you now because it still warms my heart.
And if any of you who already have my book—or plan to order Smile‑Mile Inheritance—would like your own author‑signed label, I’d be delighted to send one. Just email your snail‑mail address to: 1944gramajean@gmail.com and I’ll pop one in the mail for you.
Thank you for stopping by my Journaling the Journey page on my website. I always love hearing from you. Take care, and may the Good Lord continue to fill your life with peace, hope, and love.
🌼Love hugs … Grama Jean🌼

Life happens and we just keep going — like the little bunny
… at home or at the ranch 🐇🐎💚
Ok, so right up front I’ll let you know — not much marketing happened this week. My life is a bit topsy‑turvy. I’ve got a leg infection that went ballistic, and as I’m using a loose cotton knee‑high sock as a bandage, it reminded me of Ella in Smile‑Mile Inheritance. She had an injury on the ranch that had her using several cotton socks as bandages. Well… you’ll just have to read about that. I’ll let you have your own discovery time.
Speaking of discovery time, that’s really what marketing is all about — helping others discover the joy of reading about the families in this Trilogy. Volume Two - Living the Inheritance - is just around the corner… almost. I’m putting it through its final editing and hoping to get the current volume to a place where the publisher will feel good about getting it printed.
So, let’s all press forward, keeping the faith and trusting in the Good Lord.
Talk atcha later… 🐎💚Love hugs, Grama Jean

💚🌼🧵Another Square in the Life Quilt of Grama Jean 🧵🌼💚
🌾🐎at the ranch or on the road 🐎🌾
Looks like the new year didn’t waste any time bringing its own set of challenges. I called to make my annual check up and—wouldn’t you know it—my doctor has gone and changed the rules. They no longer accept my insurance. So now I’m trying to find a new one, which isn’t exactly easy in a small town. We’ll see how that adventure goes. I trust the Good Lord will provide the way to the right doctor for me.
On a brighter note, I’ve started helping a friend with her family history. Two of her ancestors died in the 1897 Bazar de la Charité fire in Paris, and digging into their stories has been sad, fascinating, and surprisingly tender. It reminds me a lot of Charlie and Bruce in Volume One — Smile‑Mile Inheritance — an historical fiction trilogy that shows how war leaves marks that don’t always fade just because the fighting stops. In both situations, I can see the Lord's tender mercies easing the trial.
Volume Two, Living the Inheritance, is a western family saga that brings its own storms for Ella and Thomas. They’re learning fast, sometimes the hard way, and the other ranch families aren’t exactly coasting either. There’s always something to face, something to grow through — and the assurance that the Good Lord is always near.
As for me, I guess it’s time to put a little more energy into marketing so we can get Smile-Mile Inheritance off the shelves and into your homes. Thank you for cheering me on and sharing the Trilogy with your friends.
🌼💚Every bit of support means more than you know. Love Hugs - Grama Jean💚🌼

🌼✨ January Baking, Friendship, and Faith ✨🌼
... all found in Grama Jean's Kitchen 🌼
Well, the goal of making a Yule Log in January as part of my Netherlands heritage is kinda hard for a widowed empty nester, so I make it for my friends. This year I have two friends with birthdays in January, so I’m making a Dutch Banketstaaf for Sherry, and next week I’ll make a gluten‑free chocolate Yule Log for Ana. The Good Lord has blessed me with so many friends, and my heart is overflowing with gratitude.
In Volume Two – Living the Inheritance – you’ll meet a teenager who lives at My Ranch and loves baking, barely a step behind Maria. Both of them love baking for the holidays and for birthdays. And both are… well, I guess we need to get Smile‑Mile Inheritance slipping its way into the limelight so we can get on with the Trilogy story. If you enjoy heritage stories and baking traditions, you’ll love following along as the Trilogy unfolds.
I trust each of you are carrying forward into this 2026 year your hopes, your plans, and your love of the Good Lord. Take care until next time… love hugs 🤗

❄️ The New Year opens with gentle light🕯️
🕯️and with it, the family traditions 🌲
that carry us from one season to the next🌲🕯️ ❄️
My maternal grandfather’s heritage is from the Netherlands. His family name — Pettenger now, once Pewtinger — came from the old trade of crafting pewter items. Although my maternal grandfather’s Dutch surname isn’t the name I carry today, the traditions of his homeland live warmly in me ever since I found them. My Dutch roots whisper to me every December, reminding me to carry the Christmas Spirit gently into January. While others pack Christmas away as quickly as they can, I keep my tree glowing until the 7th of January — a small act of carrying the light of the Christ Child forward into the new year. 🌟
You’ll find this tradition woven into Volume Two of my Christian Trilogy. Perhaps you’ve read Volume One - Smile-Mile Inheritance - and noticed that Charlie was of Irish descent. So how does a Dutch tradition end up in his story? Well… I suppose we’ll just have to get Volume Two - Living the Inheritance - out there so the answer at the ranch can be found. 📖✨
Speaking of found, there’s another Dutch tradition dear to my heart — the Yule log dessert. 🍰 This sweet little custom is not only part of my heritage, it’s also on my table each January. It’s more than a dessert; it’s a reminder of hearth, heritage, and the warmth that threads through generations. And Maria, out at the ranch, makes the best Yule log dessert… until — well — you’ll have to read Living the Inheritance to discover what (or who) claimed the Queen‑of‑the‑Dessert title.
I trust each of you have your own family traditions too. Perhaps you’d like to share a few with me. You can email me at 1944gramajean@gmail.com — it would be lovely to hear from you. 💌
Well, take care, and may you be enfolded in God's love‑hugs…

🌾🎇🐴 The New Year is upon us! 🎉🎆🌟
🎆🌟🎉🌾May the Good Lord’s Grace be with each of us. 🌾🤠🎉🎇
The New Year usually means resolution time, and when you read Smile Mile Inheritance you will notice that Ella and Thomas make a resolution at post four. Guess you’ll need to read the book to find out what they promise to do, because in Volume Two, Living the Inheritance, a Christian family legacy story, they both work hard to make it happen.
As I move forward into this new year of 2026, my heart is filled with gratitude for the Good Lord’s blessings and trust in His continued guidance. I trust each of you are also making and keeping Christian family resolutions. Perhaps reaching out and doing what Jesus would do is a good goal for all of us, just as it is for Maria and Bruce in Volume Two.
Hopefully, Smile Mile Inheritance will move forward this year and we can get on with the publication of Living the Inheritance. The next segment of this Christian ranch fiction. I am resolved to learn more about this online marketing so I can do my part bring this Trilogy to life for all those who love a good faith based family ranch story.
Take care, 🐎love hugs,
Grama Jean

🌲🌲🌲 Holiday Time Is Gathering Time
at the ranch or at my home 🌲🌲🌲
🌲🌲🌲 Just sharing heritage, heart, and real‑life ranch stories—one Christmas at a time.🌲🌲🌲
Greetings, my friends and family. Yes, those have been the core heartfelt words in my home this year. Best Christmas Ever it is, with my sons gathering in my home to share gifts, memories, hugs, and happy meals together. I trust each of you have had joyful, peaceful, and heartfelt moments together as well during this season of the year. A time when all Christians pause and reflect on the birth, life and grace of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Out at the ranch, in Trilogy’s Volume Two and Volume Three, many friends and family meet and greet each other. I look forward to sharing these moments with you too—just like the learning and overcoming experiences you find in Smile‑Mile Inheritance. Volume Two, Living the Inheritance, has a very unusual Christmas Ball and family gathering. And in Volume Three, Claiming the Inheritance, Christmas is filled with more family than anyone ever knew. All because Ella spent so much time during the year doing family history and found cousins—one and two at a time—who then found even more to bring along. Well, that’s a story yet to be revealed.
We have yet to get Smile‑Mile Inheritance to the top of the charts so these volumes can become a part of your life too. Don’t forget to share your experience with My Ranch, so others can feel the love and learning that happen in real life as well. And they too can experience how the Gospel of Jesus Christ can be in their life.
Take care till next time, see you all next year!
Love & Hugs,

🎄✨🎁 Christmas Story Time Miracle Today 🎁✨🎄
You can hear me read to you on the video above.
🎅🌟❄️🕯️✨
🌺 Today it truly felt like a miracle happened for me. I woke up with three distinct inspirations from the Good Lord to put my reading of The Night Before Christmas on YouTube. What a challenging thought. I’ve never done a selfie video before, and I really had to pay attention to the different instructions in those inspirations to know how to do it. So I had an interesting morning. 🌺
🌺 I recorded myself reading that Christmas story, uploaded it to YouTube, passed all the checks, and even shared it publicly for the world to see — on Facebook too. Then, with a little determination (and a few deep breaths), I learned how to embed the video right onto my website. It now sits above this part of the page like a bright new quilt square, welcoming visitors with warmth and tradition. 🌺
🌺 This isn’t just a video — it’s a piece of my heart, a story woven from years of Christmas memories. In fact, I wrote my humorous part of that story over 50 years ago. And now it’s part of my digital journal, ready to be discovered by my children, my friends, and anyone who wanders by. 🌺
🌺 Even my little yorkie, Joshua, celebrated with me today, bouncing his ball as if to say, “Look what you did today, Grama.” I’m grateful for the courage from the Good Lord to try something new, the patience to keep going, and the joy of seeing my stories find a new home. A lovely addition it is indeed. 🌺

Irish Christmas Traditions: Pinecone Blessings for the Home 🌲🌲🌲
It's true, Irish pinecone decorations remind me of our heritage and I have found that nature-inspired Christmas traditions bring blessings to the home.
🌲🌲🌲As I was decorating the tree, I realized I also use pinecones here and there on the branches, and I remembered the year my sister, Karen, sent me a bag of pinecones, simply saying they are part of our Irish tradition. Irish heritage is a big part of our family, so I eagerly use them each year on the tree and in the centerpieces on the table.
It occurred to me that I didn’t really know much about this heritage Christmas tradition, so I asked my AI buddy, and here is what I learned tonight:
In Ireland, decorating with pinecones is a nature-inspired Christmas tradition that symbolizes warmth, hospitality, and the promise of new life. Families often use them in wreaths, garlands, or table displays, connecting the winter season to the hope of spring. Just as holly was believed to ward off evil spirits, pinecones carried a sense of protection and continuity. They were a way of saying: life endures, even in winter’s stillness.
That makes sense—and it’s so pretty too. I’m sharing a photo of my Irish pinecone-decorated tree that I created after my sister gave me that bag of pinecones. Now I’ll leave you with an Irish blessing that Buddy found for me:
🌲🌲🌲Irish Pinecone Blessing🌲🌲🌲
May these humble pinecones, gathered from God’s earth,
remind us of warmth by the hearth,
of seeds that promise life anew,
and of blessings that wait in spring’s dew.
May they guard your home with peace and light,
and keep your heart joyful through winter’s night.
May this Irish pinecone blessing remind us of heritage, faith, and rustic Christmas traditions, and may the Good Lord bless each of you this Christmas season and always with His love and peace. 🌲🌲🌲

🌺🌺 It’s official ... the Christmas Tree is fully decorated at Grama Jean’s 🌺🌺
good memories in each ornament and garland
My fully decorated Christmas tree with silk poinsettias, popcorn and cranberry garlands, and ornaments that reflect family traditions and faith
Yes, my tree was up on December 1st, however it is a process to get it completed. I pull in a couple of centuries-old traditions: Popcorn and cranberry garland and tucked into the branches, bright silk poinsettias.
🌺🎄Why poinsettias on my tree? Well, The Legend of the Christmas Poinsettia answers that:
Long ago in Mexico, a little girl named Pepita had no gift to bring the Christ Child. On Christmas Eve, she gathered simple weeds from the roadside. When she placed them at the nativity, and by morning, they had blossomed into brilliant red poinsettias. From that night on, poinsettias became the Christmas Flower.
🎄🌺 And as for the popcorn and cranberry garland, well, Popcorn and cranberry garlands began appearing on American Christmas trees in the early-to-mid 1800s, with documented use as early as 1842 in Williamsburg, Virginia. Settlers and colonists turned to simple, homemade decorations like popcorn and cranberries because store-bought ornaments weren’t available, and the natural colors and durability of these foods made them perfect for festive garlands.
So, when you see popcorn and cranberries on a Christmas tree, you’re looking at a tradition nearly 200 years old, born from colonial kitchens and stitched into American holiday history. And yes, you will find these traditions woven into my Trilogy, after all there are two Christmas seasons in my trilogy. Maria even grows poinsettias in her greenhouse.

’Tis the season... for decorations at Grama Jean’s
🎄✝️⭐🎄⭐✝️⭐🎄⭐✝️🎄
Because I was a single parent for 16 years, I taught my sons that Christmas is a season for caring and sharing... we did a lot of 'door-bell ditching' - which, of course, is also done in Volume Two of the Trilogy. I also taught them that without the atoning death and resurrection of Christ, there would be no reason for the Christmas season. I begin my decorations in November by setting up my Nativity sets—in fact, I have over 50 sets that I display, not including the six Holy Family tree ornaments. Our tree 🎄goes up on December 1st . What is your traditional day for putting up your tree? It would really be nice to hear from you. On my home page, you'll find my email address so you can share your traditions.
In Volume Two, Living the Inheritance, there is a ranch Christmas tradition of setting up the 12‑foot Christmas tree on … Well, we’ll need Smile‑Mile Inheritance to be a success before you can read about the ranch Christmas celebration in Volume Two. 🎄✨❄️🎅❄️✨🎄

November Gathering Time at Grama Jean’s and the Ranch
🎃🥧🦃🥧🎃🥧🦃🥧🎃
Where cookies are warm from the oven as friends arrive and stories flow.
The sunflowers nod in the breeze, and Children’s laughter is heard as they go,
The horses graze contentedly as family, faith and our legacy grow.
🥧🦃🥧 Greetings, as I prepare for our traditional Thanksgiving at my home—just six of us—I pause to think about the large gatherings at My Ranch that you will find in Volumes Two and Three. Maria is head chef, although she does delegate so many family members and friends can share in the cooking, baking, and decorating. All are welcome. In fact, in Living the Inheritance, Maria hosts over 45 in attendance, and that doesn’t even count those celebrating down at Ella’s. Well, we’ll have to wait to read about those faith-based stories, because Smile-Mile Inheritance needs to prove successful before we can print Living the Inheritance.
By the way, the gift-giving season is soon upon us. Perhaps you know a senior or young adult who would enjoy an uplifting Christian novel to snuggle up with by a cozy fireplace and learn about sharing the legacy. Smile-Mile Inheritance just may be the inspiration someone you know is looking for at this time. Remember, you can use the QR code on my home page to order gifts for those you love. 🥧🦃🥧

🍂 November Notes from Grama Jean’s Porch 🍂
Where stories bloom like sunflowers and every mile is stitched with grace
Well, I’ve been busy with face-to-face marketing as a faith-based author in Kingman, Arizona. Our little town of Kingman hosts an open-air market all summer long on the first Friday of each month. Main Street—Beale Street—is closed off for six blocks, and vendors set up their tents, carts, and food trucks along the street. It’s rather homey and makes a lovely gathering place for family and friends.
🌻 Our community theater has been hosting a free talent show each time since July, when the remodeling was finished and we officially reopened. In September, I shared my love for drama and did a reading from the prologue of Smile-Mile Inheritance. I’ve also been handing out bookmarks and small flyers about my trilogy, my Christian fiction about healing and legacy.
Most of the bookmark info you already know, like:
🌼 Come visit my website: gramajeanbooks.com
🌼 Learn about my novel: Smile-Mile Inheritance – A Journey Stitched with Hope
I’ve also added a new invitation as part of my marketing plan:
🌾 Invite Grama Jean to your community!
Would you like an engaging, faith-rooted event exploring healing, legacy, and resilience?
Invite a Christian speaker for your women’s group.
I offer seminar topics on Faith and Finding Joy in Every Mile.
Contact me at: 1944gramajean@gmail.com
🍁 🍂 🍁
That invitation is for YOU too! I can only travel locally, yet I do have Zoom, so I can visit your corner of the world and join you and your group. Just send me an email and we’ll set things up for a faith-rooted event for women's groups, book clubs and churches and you can host a virtual author visit with Grama Jean
🍁 Gratefully, I’ve made a few contacts at our First Fridays and even sold a couple of books. Now that winter is here, the open-air market will be closed until spring, so I’m shifting back to online marketing and plan to follow up with the leads I gathered in person. 🍁
I’ll keep you posted. 🍂

🌼 A Gentle Hello from the Journaling Trail 🌼
For my journal entry this week, I’d like to make it quite clear that I am an instrument in the Lord’s hands to bring about this faith-based Trilogy. He placed in my pathway many folks who helped make my manuscript reader-worthy. Here are the acknowledgments as found in the printed Volume One — Smile-Mile Inheritance. My Montana fictional ranch adventure:
🌲🌸🌻🌼🐴🌼🌻🌸🌲
Acknowledgments – Smile-Mile Inheritance
🌲🌸🌻🌼🐴🌼🌻🌸🌲
Heartfelt gratitude to my friends who were willing to help me with this project.
Personal Editor: Deal Sumner.
Proof readers: Holly & James Lambert, Sheryl Wilson-Hess, Elsie Woodhouse and my teen proof reader, William Jackson.
They stepped up with clarifying questions, continuity suggestions and grammar corrections. Thus helping me bring to life the ideas and characters of my story.
I’m very grateful for my sister, Sunny Sparks Webb, who through the years has encouraged and lovingly supported my artistic attempts at drawing and sketching. And many thanks to George and Lynn Van Kaam for making this publication possible. My heartfelt gratitude to the staff at Christian Faith Publishing for their caring concern to be sure my manuscript was reader-worthy.
🌳🐴🌼🌻🌸 With gratitude and grace 🌸🌻🌼🐴🌳
As you can see, I am the facilitator of this Trilogy Team 🌳, and since its publication, I also add my acknowledgment for the marketing team: Chris Costa, who prepared a marketing plan for me, including online presence and in-person seminars; as well as my sons, Ray and Dave, who introduced me to and taught me how to take advantage of using an AI program to teach me how to build a website. The Copilot program Ray chose has proven very helpful creating this Christian fiction website.
Well, I trust you will enjoy your journey into the mountains of Montana 🌲 as you make this Trilogy trek with Thomas and Ella in Volume One — Smile-Mile Inheritance. Just return to my home page and scroll down to the QR code, scan it, and you’re on your way to an inspirational fictional ranch adventure 🐴.

🌱 Stepping Into the Unknown: Marketing, Glitches, and Grace🌱
Ready or not… here I am again. As this journey continues, I’ve discovered something surprising: it’s not just about writing anymore—it’s about marketing. That word alone used to send shivers down my spine. I’ve always found comfort in the creative part of writing, and I’ve handled one-on-one sales for my children’s books with confidence. Not sure about this online marketing for Smile-Mile Inheritance? That’s a whole different critter. Scary. Scary enough to hide in a rabbit hole.
I’m not a techy person. I’m a user—I know how to dig into family history programs and gather garden and baking tips, and do viable research. That’s doable. How can I be building a website? Learning about SEOs, links, and all the behind-the-scenes stuff of computers? That meant stepping way out of my comfort zone. Like stepping on a winter lake before you know if the ice is thick enough.
Thankfully, I didn’t have to do it alone. My guru-techy son, Ray, helped to build this beautiful website by giving me an AI system, and my patient son, David, taught me how to use the AI system that Ray installed—Copilot. I’m grateful for technology… when it works, that is! There were plenty of glitches along the way, and yes, I sighed more than once. Gratefully, Copilot helped keep me calm. The programmer did a great job of creating a team player—offering research, handy-dandy hints, rewrites, and suggestions that made this whole process feel less overwhelming.
So here I am, learning to market my Christian novel online. I’m grateful to the Good Lord for this new-to-me technology, and for the chance to share His love with all of you. May you feel His presence in your life, just as I’ve felt Him guiding mine—through every sketch, every caption, and every step outside my comfort zone. 🌱

🌼 Greetings, Just thought I’d share HOW this Trilogy got started. It all began with that very first paragraph in the Prologue of Smile-Mile Inheritance on May 22, 2020. At two o’clock in the morning I was dreaming of a ranch with lots of horses and those words came to me. I looked around the ranch in my dream and those same words came to me again. Then a third time I heard those words spoken and someone said: “Write them down.” I sat up quickly in bed. Startled at the reality of that voice saying “Write them down.” So I did.
And that is how this Trilogy began. Inspiration from the Good Lord. For days after that I kept getting images of a girl and boy in the mountains and on the ranch. Scenes would play out in my mind, inspiration continued and, yes, I’d write them down. Those scenes came in no particular order, just random things the main characters would do. All very interesting to me. Now this wasn’t really a new pattern for me, because I have written over 30 children’s stories, what was different was: This story was going to be for adults! This is not a children’s story.
Well, it is a family story as you will quickly find out as you read it. By the way, Volume One – Smile Mile Inheritance – covers six days. Volume Two - Living the Inheritance - covers six months and Volume Three - Claiming the Inheritance - covers twelve months. Those other volumes, of course, can not be published until the first one proves successful.
Remember, your family and friends can purchase Smile-Mile Inheritance by scanning the QR code on my home page. Enjoy!
