  1. Katey, I literally cried listening to you describe the day your books arrived and your girls reading by your bookshelves and especially your daughter’s comment. Everything about this is so beautiful, and only because my world has gone topsy-turvy with the approach and now birth of my first granddaughter, I still haven’t gotten my hands on this book. I am REALLY looking forward to reading what I KNOW is an amazing book that holds such beautiful and poignant meaning. I am SO happy for you and proud OF you! Congrats! And I know you’re relishing every moment 😀 oxox
