    Parameters
    ----------
    **kwargs : any
        Default values you want to add to the session state, if we're creating a
        new one.

    Example
    -------
    >>> session_state = get(user_name='', favorite_color='black')
    >>> session_state.user_name
    ''
    >>> session_state.user_name = 'Mary'
    >>> session_state.favorite_color
    'black'

    Since you set user_name above, next time your script runs this will be the
    result:
    >>> session_state = get(user_name='', favorite_color='black')
    >>> session_state.user_name
    'Mary'
