All About Grace

Oh my my my,  I have learned a lot from and about Grace since I have been staying at home with her.  She is a mini-me.  I mean that in the fact that I spend a great deal of the day “frustrated” and laughing because I hear myself thinking “wow, this is what it was like when I was younger.”  Even though it is frustrating, I am loving every minute.  I love that I have been able to spend this time with her.  So, since I have learned so much about her the last couple of months, I thought  I would share some of it with you:

• She is determined to be an Olympian.  It doesn’t matter the sport, she is going to do it all, volleyball, swimming, diving, gymnastics, track and field.  We have spent many nights playing volleyball in the house with a soccer ball (not a good idea), diving off of couches, literally, and running super duper fast “just like they do on TV.”
• She is going to be a princess when she gets older because she wants to marry her Daddy.  She is going to wear her Cinderella dress and carry pink flowers. 
• She is going to be a model and walk the runway, because they wear pretty clothes.
• Gracie and I star in many feature films.  My recent favorite, she was Lightening McQueen and I was Mater…I was thrilled but at least I saved the day in Cars 2.
• She still loves to dance and sing.
• She colors in the lines most of the time and has decided that when she goes to work, she is going to color.  Can I get that job and how much does it pay?
• We are already talking about her birthday and Christmas.  She has already started her Christmas list.  She has also voiced concern that Santa won’t know that we moved, so we have to send him our new address via a text message.

Oh, I could go on and on and on.  She is full of it all day everyday.  I am still trying to figure out why I am busier now that I am staying home then I was while I was working?  I feel like I don’t have any more free time!  I know eventually a job is going to come around and I am going to miss these times so I am soaking it all up now.   I sure love this silly girl!
