Hi everyone, Thank you again for getting me past another week. Only 7 more weeks to go! Let's see what we can do!! I know some of you were wondering about my middle name. It is Hope! It was the name of my great grandmother. She was an amazing woman. My great grandfather owned a gas station and he died very young, so my great grandmother, Hope, was left to raise 4 kids . She worked three jobs as a librarian, a dental assistant and a secretary, but her real love and hobby was painting and pottery. My family said she was always filled with alot of "Hope".Thank you again so much for your support, it means the world to me.
I love you all,
Katharine
Seriously, is there any contestant that has been as gracious as Katharine? Show her some love! We are 85 away from 1000 users! Let's show Katharine we can support her by getting to 1000 before voting time. Remember though, NO POSTING DURING VOTING HOURS. You should be voting for Kat!
-ChadHere is the small surprise...a personal pic! Katharine took this pic with the blanket she got from the Kat Pack.
This blanket was made and given to Katharine by Kat Pack member Laurie (AI12345). Laurie has been a great contributor to this website and also an incredible supporter of Katharine. Thank you Laurie!
Thanks SO much for posting Chad!!
And thanks SO SO SO much Kat for taking the time to write to us AGAIN!
We love you!! <3
Wow! That was such an awesome message. It was so great of Katharine to show her appreciation to her fans. Katharine is going to do amazing tonight. One of her very close friends contacted me and said that this week's theme is totally her element. He said "this was her week to really shine!" I can't wait for her performance. Even tough she'll be fantastic tonight - still vote like crazy. This is a tough competition.Go Kat!
I love how Kat connects with her fans... both vocally through AI, and personally through the message boards.
Her great grandmother seemed like a very nice person. I can't fathom how she was able to raise 4 kids all on her own with 3 jobs. It really just shows you how great of a family our dearest Katharine has. I really do believe that her great grandmother's hope, optimism, and love for art, were passed on to Kat... and lucky for us, Katharine is now sharing her greatness with everyone in the world.
I just found out that the Idols work/rehearse 16 hours a day for American Idol. For Katharine to have time to send messages and show us how thankful she is... I really think that's just amazing. Katharine works 16 hours/day for us... she only needs us for 2 hours/week. As what Mama McPhee said a week ago, "IF YOU CAN DREAM IT, YOU CAN DO IT". We can DO THIS GUYS.
I love the picture! Her eyes, her smile, and her appreciation = PRICELESS. When you think you couldn't possibly LOVE Katharine even more, she proves you wrong week after week. I couldn't be any more PROUD to be a McPhanatic, hehe. I really, really do love Katharine to death.
Oh! How absolutely wonderful!!
We are so proud to be McPhans! Are we not??
Thanx for clearing up the middle name thing Katharine! Hope is a gorgeous name!
I am
Seeing the picture actually brought tears to my eyes
Thank you for the eloquent and intimate family story about your beloved grandmother, Hope. That's a pretty middle name, Kat! I've always liked women's names with a spiritual or biblical origin (such as Faith, Hope, Sarah, Mary, etc.). Anyway, thanks for keeping in touch with the Kat fans! Have a wonderful Wednesday! God bless.
