Beach Lovers (like me) … it’s June! The college kids have been home for weeks, the amazing grads have all been thoroughly celebrated, and the private school crowd has joined the summer fun. Meanwhile, our poor public school kids are still trudging through — but hang in there, you’re so close! Just one more day, and then you, too, can sleep […]

First Monday….Are You Kitting Me (Labor Day 2024)
The kids are back in school, I am another year older, and the last big weekend of summer is ushering us into the rush of fall. I pray that you have been able to enjoy some really good moments of rest during this summer of 2024. As I mentioned our family’s summer was packed with a lot of […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (August 2024)
Greetings as we embark on the last month of summer! I am not sure what happened to June and July (and I definitely missed a monthly newsletter in there), but here we are staring down the last weeks of summer. I am struggling a bit with that reality but so very thankful for some truly […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me (May 2024)
April was an exciting month for Pinked! For those who recall our Maryland theme to our October event last year, I believe it was the start of something significant in the life of this little non-profit ministry. Since that event, it has been on my heart to expand the support we provide to the Pink […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (April 2024)
Happy April! When I think back over this Easter weekend, refreshment is what I am feeling. It was so sweet to be with my family enjoying the warmth and glimpses of the sun as we celebrated our Risen Jesus, the HOPE of the world. Last weekend, we got to attend our 5th Bosom Buddies Charities Ball. It is always such […]
First Monday of March…Are You Kitting Me?
Last month I mentioned a book I was reading by Anjuli Paschall called Awake. I am actally making my way through the book for second time and this morning, I read the chapter about being “Awake to Hope”. How fun to be reminded about the two messages I had been hearing for this year of 2024! […]
First Monday of 2024…Are You Kitting Me?
A New Year’s Message from Pinked Perspective As another holiday season ushers us into 2024, I have asked my family to each identify 3 personal highlights of 2023 and to then look forward to this coming year with what excites them about 2024. This was prompted by one particular message I heard this Advent season […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (April 2023)
Happy April! Passion Week is here! My hope is to be more intentional and contemplative in thought this week. I may just subscribe to those text alerts that help me to follow along with the events in the life of Jesus of Nazareth this week. Is anyone else doing that this season? March marked a year since discontinuing my ten-year course […]
First Monday of 2023…Are you Kitting Me?
A Holiday Message from Pinked Perspective When it was time to write a message for our family Christmas card this year, I recalled how Philippians 4 had been speaking the truth that my weary soul was so deperately in need of. We all longed for another fresh start in 2022, only to be met with more loss, heartache and struggle. […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me (Labor Day 2022 Edition)
While this is our First Monday Labor Day edition, admitting it’s September is not easy. Summer came and went much too fast. So fast that we are going to try to hold onto summer all the way into October if we can. That may or may not be a hint at what to expect with […]
Last Monday of Summer…Are You Kitting Me?
Yes we are a few Monday’s late with our First Monday…Are You Kitting Me update. Honestly, I have been a little busy holding onto summer with all I’ve got and hoping to enjoy more moments like the one in the background photo above. That was one short summer, can I get an “Amen”. I guess […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me (April 2022)
Happy April! We are looking forward to Passion Week next week. Not sure about anyone else but March was an absolute blur. It was exciting in that March 10th marked my last day of taking hormone therapy, Tamoxifen after being on it for ten years. It is definitely a milestone on my journey. It hasn’t felt […]
