Hello my Mama Kat friends! I’ve been MIA lately, busy with holiday obligations and haven’t had a lot of time to write. But I lucked out when I saw this week’s prompts, because earlier in the year I wrote a post with the Where I’m From template. So, I’m cheating a little by reposting. I look forward to reconnecting in the new year. Happy Holidays!

This blog is the result of a writing exercise I completed after being inspired by a post I saw on Urban Moo Cow, by Debra Cole. She wrote a beautiful piece called Where I’m From, which was inspire by Galit Breen’s essay at Mamalode. Fortunately, there was a template that helped me get my wheels turning. When I was finished, I shared it with someone I trust, who’s been encouraging me to be more “raw” with my content. She urged me to post it, so I’m taking a chance. I hope you like it! Thank you to Debra and Galit for motivating me to step outside my comfort zone.
