Last August, my mother bought me a copy of Artful Blogging for my birthday because I had just shared with her my long-buried dream of wanting to be a writer one day. My favorite article in the magazine was the one about Beverly’s “Pink Saturday” posts. Without hesitation, I clicked over to http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/ and was immediately blessed by Beverly’s ideas, the creative blogs featured there, and all of the stunning pictures. After several month of contemplation, this January I finally had the courage to start a blog of my own with an emphasis on encouraging single mothers through the ups and downs of turning their lives around (like I am in the process of doing).
Although I am not an artist or antique collector like many of you, I like to express my creativity—and reach out to others—through words. I am passionate about helping single moms move forward in a positive direction by gaining strength from God and looking at the “pink” side of their circumstances. Oh, and I share many of your interests, too. I love having tea with friends, knitting with Mom (there’s me showing off her pink felted “hat-band” above), decorating my home, and gathering cherry collectables!
My whole family is on board with “Pink Saturday” now, and they are on the look-out for pink in our corner of the world. My pink contribution for today is a collection of pictures taken or inspired by various members of my family.

Thank you, Beverly, for featuring my blog and for paving the way to this wonderful blogging adventure for all of us. I am honored to be featured today and happy to meet such talented folks in the blogging community. Pink Saturday friends, feel free to come visit and share my blog with single moms that you know. They need encouragement more than you think. Happy Pink Saturday!
