Adults loved her just as much as little children, and she was perfectly behaved. Thank you to forum moderator Pete who was there to man the “goat station” outside the store!

Morgan came, and even signed books with me. All the photos in this post were taken by Jerry Waters, and he took some truly beautiful ones of my beautiful girl. (With boyfriend Justin in tow.)

Maia’s been trying on outfits, getting ready for the booksigning at Books-a-Million this coming Saturday. Maybe she should be a giant pumpkin! Or a ladybug…. Or a bee! Buzzzzzz! Ooops.
