I’m thinking their chosen attire – especially the Santa suit accessorized with an elephant schnoz – might fall under the “what not to wear” category.

Sisters Having a Heart-to-Heart

Uh-huh, uh-huh. Big sister, I couldn’t agree more. I was not privy to the details of their exchange, but it seems that M.E. was pleased with whatever big sister had to say during their little tête-à-tête. Aren’t those rolls delicious?

Raising Little Women…Sort Of

To lighten things up a bit, I’m sharing my most recent parenting column, which really makes the fact that some people have referred to this stinky, little blog as “spiritual” a tad embarrassing. You’ll understand the “stinky” reference soon enough.

We may be living in the Estroden around here where X chromosomes rule, but we’re no sissies. Muddy puddle-jumping beats playing princess any day.

A Girl and Her Cell Phone

I don’t even want to think about the day when there might be some strange boy on the other line, and she’ll no longer be saying, “Hiiiiiiiiii” or “Uh-oh” to her Gaba and Nana.

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.
