Kolby got an acceptance letter from the Seattle Pacific MFA in Creative Writing program in the mail today!!! It is a really selective program and things were looking especially bleak as we discovered the number of applicants was way up this year due to the withering job market. He's a great writer and getting accepted into such a great program affirmed it! He has until April 15th to accept or reject, but I'd say there's a 99.9% chance he'll be happily accepting admission into the program. When he officially decides, I'll write a post with more details about the program. The main detail of interest to most of you is the fact that we will NOT have to move to Seattle because it is a low-residency program (I'll explain that later, too).
Here's a picture of Kolby telling Maya that he gets to go back to school! She's a great listener. It is such great news and he is one happy camper today!
And no, that's not a large pile of games on the chair in the background. We are grown-ups now and owning so many (awesome) games would be childish.

Emily and Kolby, that's wonderful!! I'm not surprised that Kolby got accepted, but I'm happy to hear that it's the program where you could live anywhere you want! God is good!
I totally agree with Debby. Kolby is definitely a winner!
