Snow Day

Proof that it snowed today in Georgia

 

My children never stop reminding me that it’s the little things in life that bring us great joy. When the snow first began to flutter outside our window, my 5-year-old invited us all to do a snow dance; its choreography consisted of us running around in circles, screaming and laughing and saying, “It’s snowing!” over and over. When the snow kept on falling, she announced, “All my dreams are coming true.”

 

Here she’s checking to see if the snow is sticking (it wasn’t), but snowflakes are still falling and the temp is dropping so maybe we’ll get lucky.

 

Sampling a snowflake

I’m so happy!

 

But I’m not. I’m cold. (My poor 2-year-old is just getting over a virus and didn’t share her sister’s enthusiasm for the nippy weather.)

    It's only 9:00am and mine are already out in the "snow" – the 1/2 inch barely covering the grass. 30 minutes of bundling them up like Michelin-men!! But they are having a ball!!

Hi, I’m Kate

 

I'm the author of two nonfiction books Getting Past Perfect and Weightless, a storyteller*, overthinker, eating disorder survivor, mom of five, book junkie, socially awkward nerd as well as a speaker (so basically a walking and talking contradiction), and a perfectionist in recovery.

I am currently working towards my MFA in Fiction at Warren Wilson. Thank you to everyone who has read my drafts, offered feedback, and cheered me on. The writing life is often solitary, but I wouldn’t be here without a community of support.
