Sniffers and Kate

"You are a lucky girl, Kate," Mom said, stroking Kate's hair off her forehead. "I can't believe it. This is the second time you have cheated death. You must be more than lucky. You must be very special. You must have something very important to do in this life."
Mom's words poured over Kate like a warm blanket. She was special. She did have something important to do. The words rang true and soothed her like the warming rays of the sun after a cold rain.
