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 Wednesday of February…Are you Kitting Me?
“Awake” is my word for 2024. I heard a great recommendation in a podcast shortly after the first of the year that instead of settling in on goals for change in the first week of January that I should take all of January to contemplate what I want for the year ahead. And so I […]
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 March…Are You Kitting Me?
What an overwhelming response to February’s request for donations for our breast cancer kits! We had two Kit Assembly gatherings since our last email, and those items sent our way fulfilled the many kit requests we are receiving. Just to give you an idea of those that are being touched by the mission of Pinked Perspective through your support, […]
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 (June 2022)
Well it is starting to feel like my favorite time of year. I have said it before here in one of my archived blog posts, summer brings a jumble of emotions. Mostly the good kind, but summer also brought about my diagnosis back in 2011. And for whatever reason, I know it to be the same for […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me (May 2022)
It has been sweet to be invited to conduct kit assemblies with three different groups over the last few weeks. At most kit assemblies, I get to share a little bit about Pinked Perspective including our why, our how, and our what. It occurred to me recently that after almost 11 years of telling my breast cancer story […]
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 […]
Sisters: A Tribute to Warrior Gail
“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 […]
