I don’t often take the time to mention how amazing Grace is on our road trips. Well, she is truly, very special.

We just got home from our most recent road trip adventure to Washington, DC that began from our home in Denver on November 9, 2020. We didn’t plan to be gone for four months but there were many twists and turns to our schedule and through it all, Grace was simply amazing. I think she earned the title of Road Warrior.

No matter how long we drove in the car, or how many homes and hotels we stayed in, Grace was always ready to smile and let people know they are loved. We set all kinds of personal records on this trip: 3800 miles, four months of travel and stayed in 10 different locations.

I know I am happy to be home and I think Grace is too. We are so grateful for all the friends and family we got to see on our trip. Also, we never take it for granted that the journey is a safe one. We are grateful to be home safely.

We look forward to sharing the life lessons in our next book, Everybody Loves Grace: A True Story of Grace’s Adventure to Washington, DC.

Take Care, Katy

Some days I feel like the luckiest dog on earth. Today as I was walking with Mommy in the sleet and freezing rain, one of the neighbors opened her garage door to say hello to me. She was worried that I was cold, and she wanted to be sure Mommy and I were okay.

Eleanor lives down the street from Grandma Joan and she used to help care for Tinto when he visited a long time ago. It’s nice to meet some of the people who knew and remember Tinto. I think he loved the snow as much as I do.

Lovingly, Grace

February is filled with special days such as Ground Hog’s and Valentine’s Day, Children’s Illustrator and Authors Week, and Literacy Awareness. I think every day is special and I do my best to share love with everyone I meet.  I want people to feel loved even during these difficult days with Covid-19 social distancing restrictions. I’ve come to realize many people are very tired of being alone. My mommy tells me every day how lucky she is I am with her. I feel the same way about being with Mommy. February is here and I just wanted to take a moment to remind you how much you are loved. Lovingly, Grace
