Hello!
I just bought your planner Friday and am excitedly waiting
to receive it!! I wanted to send you an encouraging thank you and hope
you will allow me to also badger you with a question! How can I expect it
to come - us post, ups or fed ex and that will give me a guessing point on when
it will come also. I truly am excited to get it and use it.
I have to thank you for creating this planner. I,
also, have been through many planners over the past 20 years of High School,
College, working life and now homeschool mom. All of them! Franklin
Covey, Staples, Truly Mom, Fly Lady affliliated . . . . Most
recently I even pulled up several options online and hand copied them on paper.
Then I 'used' them for several days each. I then settled, settled being
the key word, on one of them. I used that planner for 2 years. But
used is an over statement. I owned it, it is very pretty! I only
used the calendar.
I have a notebook for school, for my time with God, for my
dreams, for my home. I get excited over new, crisp white paper and a good
pencil. I love to sit and just write my prayers, thoughts, dreams,
plans. So are you seeing how your planner just curled my toes!!!
A homeschool website, I don't even know which one, led
me to your planner. If I took way too much of yours and my time I could
tell you how clear it is that this moment was exactly God's timing in what he
is doing in my life right now. But suffice it to say, we know the same
God so you can praise Him without the details. I bought your e-book first
just so I didn't spend the money AGAIN on another planner. I was
floored. You articulated so well what God had already told my husband and
I and what we were living. We live a beautiful, slow life dedicated to
Him and discipling and educating our daughter while spreading the news of His
SON!
So I put together my own perfect planner copy like you
described in your book to try it out. WOW! Ella's camp out b-day
party this past Friday was a snap. This week prepping for my
sister-friend's four kids and foster kiddo coming over (we are repeating the
camp out!) has been a snap. You have created exactly what I need and want
but didn't know it.
How can I appropriately communicate with words my thanks to
your Mom and then to you for being so open to the Lord's leading and taking the
time to put all you had to and still do to make this happen and be available
for all of us?? Thank you Jenny very much.
If you are anything like me, life works out much better when it is
scripted. “Then the LORD answered me and said: ‘Write the vision and
make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it’.” (Habakkuk
2:20) I have found this scripture to be of great importance; reminding
me to prayerfully write things down rather than trying to remember
everything on my own. Because of the importance of staying organized as a
stay-at-home homeschooling mother, using planners has been a wonderful
and necessary tool in my life.
Does this describe you? If so, then I have the perfect resource to recommend you!
Recently I had the honor to review the eBook, Planner Perfect: A Fresh Idea on Organizing Your Life by Jenny Penton.
The Planner Perfect is unlike any planner that I have ever used in the
past. It is truly a breath of fresh air that I know will help me out
with planning many wonderful thins to come in the new year. It is well
written, well organized, keeps God at the center of your planning, and
very simple to understand. The beautiful thing about Jenny’s eBook is
that it teaches you how to become a master life planner, taking control
of your own scheduling, rather than being held captive by your schedule.
The story behind the concept is absolutely heartwarming. Jenny has
fashioned the planner around the influence of her precious Proverbs 31
mother and the example she modeled while Jenny was growing up. Rather
than the typical “task manager” planning, the Planner Perfect is a place
where you create your life and can dream up new things birthed in
freedom, rather than being tied down by an impossible to-do-list.
One of my favorite things about the Planner Perfect approach to goal
setting is the simple fact that it is more about dreaming and living
life than about the legalistic aspect of making lists to “check” off.
While lists do serve their purpose, the Planner Perfect gives you a
whole new understanding about the importance of not overbooking yourself
and family. This new “mindset” will help anyone who has been giving
their calendar too much control in their life plans.
Some of the many wonderful topics this fabulous eBook covers are:
- creating a space of your own
- secrets to why we can’t stay organized
- the role of your calendar
- daily and monthly pages
- organizing and exploring your strengths and talents
- organizing your wardrobe
- party planning
- vacations
- emotional and physical health
- keeping your home clean
- meal planning
- holiday’s and special occasions
- aspiring for more
I would highly recommend purchasing this eBook if you want a fresh
and exciting new start to your life planning. I love the way Jenny
teaches us to become the master of our own life planning accompanied
with living life, accomplishing goals, creating and accomplishing
dreams, and above all else; living a life pleasing to God.
Hi Jenny,
You are my role model. I take my hat off to you because you have lots of kids and a really busy home but you always look so well together on your videos and you still have time for your business and to bake! I sit here in awe. If I want to get some baking done then other things don't get done. You're an inspiration!

I walked through the doorway at 8:20 with the Planner Perfect, Planner
for Girls for Amy. It is now 9:10 and Amy is STILL setting her monthly
goals, daily plans, and dreaming big. Thank you, thank you, thank you
Jenny Penton! ♥

I am Confident that I will be able to lead my girls to a wonderful life of planning and living on purpose!!!!!!!
