“Weeping may last through the night but Joy comes with the Morning.” Psalm 30:5b I am the youngest of three siblings and the only daughter to two of the most faithful parents anyone could possibly ask for. So I didn’t grow up knowing what it was like to have a sister. However, I did have […]
First Monday of 2022…Are You Kitting Me?
As I reflected in order to write a message for our family Christmas card this year, I recalled that familiarity between the days of living through breast cancer treatment 10 years ago and the days of deep quarantine of 2020 which reminded us that there is much value in “Slow and Rest”. Then with a flip […]
Third Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (November Thankfulness)
With the flip of the calendar to November and already to the 3rd Monday of November, I realize how hard it has been to catch up since our event. I always find that October brings me incredible energy and purpose, and this October of 2021 was no different! It was really fun to try something different this year with our Family […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (Labor Day 2021 Edition)
I arrived back home to the states from my extended stay in Aruba on August 4th. Although there was much disappointment around missing out on a special 10 year anniversary dinner with my toes in the sand and a snorkel cruise in that amazing blue water on our last two scheduled days, I am able […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (10 Year Anniversary)
This past Thursday, July 29th marked the day ten years ago when we sat in the breast center of our local hospital receiving the confirming news of my breast cancer diagnosis. They say surviving breast cancer ten years later is significant. I think “they” must be right, so as the day approached, I was intent […]
First Monday… Are You Kitting Me? (Summer of Celebration 2021)
Hope everyone had a wonderful July 4th and is still celebrating…Since celebrating should hardly be done solo, I decided to ask my friend Jen about her thoughts on the “Summer of Celebration”. She whipped up the following and left me speechless. I couldn’t help but share with all of you. How blessed to be loved […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (June 2021)
Summer is upon us. In fact, it is pretty heavy upon us in these parts. I have been thinking a lot about what I want the rhythm of this summer to be. Then I want my decisions about our summer schedule to help settle us into that rhythm. July 29th which is about halfway through […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (May 2021)
“Because God delights in us entering into the fray of this world, to bring light, beauty, and truth and to stand strongly and boldly for His purposes, He sends us trials and training to prepare us for the platform He would have us stand on.” ~Sally Clarkson I was reminded several different times this week […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (April and Easter 2021)
Spring has sprung, it seems. We are slowly crawling our way out of our Covid caves of isolation. Is it just me or do our interactions with each other just seem awkward? To deny that we are all changed and still being changed by this trauma we have experienced would be dishonest. However, I do […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me (March 2021)
You may (or more likely may not) recall a post I wrote a little before Easter last year about Shabbat which is the Jewish word for Sabbath. (If you don’t recall, you can certainly find it HERE and might be worth another read especially if you enjoy the art of looking back like I do.) […]
