Today was a pretty sweet day.
A chilly morning.
A fourth-grade field trip.
Something garlicky-gingery in the slow cooker for tonight.
And then I got an email that took the day from just plain sweet to super duper sweet to the power of ten.
I’ve got an illustrator for my next book with Beach Lane Books and she is the amazing Stephanie Graegin!
My editor showed her my text for Happy Birthday, Baby and she said YES!!!
Horns!
Confetti!
Dancing!
More dancing!
More dancing!
More dancing!
I’m so excited…
