Born of Wonder
I think the world is sacramentally, irrefutably, magically endowed with wonder. We walk through thin places unaware. Let's find some.

a day in the life (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey it’s my birthday! I feel beyond grateful for another trip around the sun. Maybe it’s just me but I love reading ‘day in the life’ posts. I love getting glimpses into people’s daily lives, especially ‘creative’ types I admire. I like to see what they read, how they spend their time, what their kids read/watch, what music playlists they listen to, and especially when they write/work! In taking stock of my own life (and a new almost frantic feeling I have of never having enough time) I decided

“I want it to go the other way.”This is what my youngest daughter, three and a half years old, says to me. Perhaps due to the immensity of change happening around her - her older sister off to kindergarten, her own increasing independence at pre-k - she has taken to pretending to be a baby.

Hi, I’m Katie! I’m a former public radio producer and current writer and audio consultant. I live on a farm with my husband, two little girls, and many, many animals. I am passionate about Icelandic horses and wearing inordinate amounts of tartan clothing in all seasons. Here’s the mood: coffee, tea, fiddle music, saint stories, mythology, literature, and rediscovering a sense of adventure amidst the chaos of family life. My husband and I JUST launched a podcast! On this show, we grab a beer, gl
