Happy Pink Saturday!
This week we have one hundred eighty-two (182) participants in Pink Saturday. There are three new participants, and you will find them at the bottom of the list. Let's all take time to welcome them to Pink Saturday. All participants are listed in the order in which they began participating.
One of the participants brought to my attention that some of you are clicking on the participants' name in the list, visiting them, and then backing your browser up to get back to my blog. Please know that you can put your pointer over the blog you want to visit and right click to open the link in another tab. This leaves my blog open for you to use as a reference. Sometimes I have ten or twelve open at one time. Be certain to try this because it is a great and efficient timesaver.
Please take the time to visit other participants, and leave a comment to let them know you stopped by to enjoy their pink. Pink Saturday is about having fun, and giving us a chance to meet others in the blogging community. I promise you it is worth the effort because you will not only see lots of pink, you will meet incredibly nice and talented people. Please refer to my post dated January 8 for more information about Pink Saturday.
Remember that my reminder e-mail stated I needed your plan for participating today no later than 8 a.m. EST Friday. If you don't see your name and link here it is because I did not receive your plan for participating by that time.
I want to thank those of you that take the time to leave me a comment. I love reading what you all have to say.
Reminder - We have a weekly challenge for you to visit the blog of at least one participant that you have never visited before. Then next Saturday include that blog and a link in your post. Quite a few of you have been done this challenge, and have met some of the great Pink Saturday participants. Thank you for sharing with us.
****************************
My pink contribution for this Pink Saturday I am going to reshare a post I did April 19, 2008. This post featured the figurine that is in the Pink Saturday button. Pink Saturday is something I was doing only on my blog at that time, and this is one of the first Pink Saturday posts I did. I thought some of you might enjoy seeing this.
Last Saturday I said I was going to begin to share some of my favorite pink things around my home. I showed you the lovely pink hinged box that my husband and I purchased many years ago, and today I am showing you another Beatrice.I've already introduced you to sweet Beatrice that greets you when you visit our home. Remember Beatrice was the name of one of the most important women in my life.
This lovely creature is the other Beatrice in my home. I have a small collection of Irish Dresden figures which I've had for at least twenty years. My parents used to give me one on special occasions. When we found one that bore the name Beatrice, we just knew she should be mine.
This Beatrice is quite petite just like our real Beatrice. While this Beatrice is only about four inches, our Beatrice was less that five feet tall.
Beatrice was a gentle spirit with a huge and generous heart. She freely and unconditionally gave her love to all, and we are all better for having had her in our lives. It should be our goal to reflect her grace in the way we live.
