September often feels like a new year. Kids are going back to school, summer comes to an end and work schedules become more regulated. September 2020 seems to be the beginning of our “new normal”. In the spring we found COVID-19 scary, confusing and thought to be short-term; in the summer we tolerated restrictions on […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (August Edition)
This past week we celebrated nine years since diagnosis day. For fun I looked back at my photo/video library from the days surrounding those initial days of diagnosis. I posted a video on our social media from that day July 29, 2011 sitting at the dinner table watching our littles (then 3 y.o. and 18 […]

First Monday…Are you Kitting me? (July Edition)
Now that the very different school year ended, we have moved into a very different kind of summer. Vacations are canceled, jobs are lost, people are hurting, and many are still cautious. With all that is going on, if we aren’t careful with our thoughts, they are likely to take us into a scary downward […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me (Summer is Here! Edition)
“When we show up with compassion for others, our own disappointments won’t ring as hollow or sting with sorrow nearly as much.” -Lysa Terkeurst, IT’S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THIS WAY Over the last few weeks I have been participating in a Zoom Bible study with the ladies of my home church. We are discussing […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (COVID-19 edition #2)
May Day Has Come, Now it’s the First May Monday! May Day means creative basket arrangements of flowers in my beloved hometown of Annapolis, MD. May Day means Lei Day in my husband’s hometown in Hawaii. Flowers in any form are enough to bring some joy to this quarantine season. This is also about the time that I start […]
Meet the Team Tuesday: Dennis
So it’s Tuesday, that day that is so wedged in the middle for the mundane that it has become known as Simply Tuesday thanks to one of my favorite authors, Emily P. Freeman. (A wonderful read by the way!) Does Tuesday look different since quarantine or does every other day just feel more like Tuesday […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (COVID-19 edition)
It’s Spring! And Easter is A’Comin! Is it just me or does it feel like a lot longer than a month since the last First Monday email? This First Monday also marks our fourth week into this Coronavirus quarantine/social distancing season. It is our new reality, people say. In some ways, I hope it is so. Although […]
Shabbat
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Matthew 11:28-29 In some of the internet circles I pay attention to, it is […]
First Monday…Are You Kitting Me? (March Edition)
Happy First Monday of March! A breast cancer diagnosis is an initiation to a club that no one wants to join. This February, I received a phone call from a friend letting me know of another friend from church that was recently diagnosed. Phone drop…these are the calls I dread. I hate that she had to […]
