Why, happy day to you, jolly friend!

Do you know what day it is? 

It is the first of May!

May has always been my favorite month, for many reasons.

Yes, it just so happens to be my birthday month. But I can assure you, the biggest reason actually remains to be the fact that around May is when we are reminded of the glorious Summer days that are soon to be!

A lot of exciting things are coming my way these next few months.

Sitting and basking in sunshine, reading lots and lots of books, spending time with friends and family.

Did I say sunshine?

Something that I really want to bring to your attention, however, is the color pink.

Whether you have been reading my blog for some time, or you know me in real life, this is the one truth you must know about me.

Pink.

Not only is it the best color, but it is the ultimate color.

It is the color of queens and the only thing that truly brings peace to my soul.

I have a quote on my screensaver that says 

A day without pink is like a day without sunshine.

And I have just shed a tear. Have truer words ever been spoken?

You know how plants need sunlight in order to photosynthesize?

Right. They could not create the energy that they need to sustain living without it. 

Only if you understand this biological fact will you comprehend pink’s presence in my life.

When I wake up in the morning, what is my first thought?

As I am bustling through the day, getting everything done, what is the one thing always on my mind?

If ever I am down and need cheering up, what never fails to brighten my mood?

It is the best nail color (do not tell Marcy) and best lip color. 

It is the perfect neutral to complement any outfit.

Better yet, give me a fully pink outfit any day, and I will be gleefully content.

The prettiest flowers. The prime color in a sunset.

All of my kitchenwares instantly command the space with their perfect hue.

Why do you think all the best princess dresses are pink?

Pink is life!
