Grace-isms

Grace has been pretty full of funny things lately. She is Miss Literal to the max.

Story #1

as relayed to me by a friend:

friend:Grace do not get paint all over you or your mom is going to have a cow!

Grace: No she's not, she is going to have a baby!

Story #2

Grace is reading quite a lot . At first we weren't sure if it was just all stuff she had memorized or if she was really reading, but it seems to be for real. It's pretty amazing to hear her blurt out random things. She will sit and read books for long periods of time sounding out words she is unsure of. So, lately, she keeps bringing home these fliers from the neighbors house that is for sale. I keep telling her to stop bringing home the fliers. Today we were going to get the mail and she goes to grab another one.

Me: Grace, stop taking the fliers. Those are for people that want to buy the house.

Grace: But the sign says "TAKE ONE PLEASE"

OK, so she wins.

Another funny Grace story....we are having VBS at church this week. Grace is having a blast, of course, and is showing off her ability to talk non-stop for hours at a time. Tonight in her "prayer pail" she had them write her prayer of "I hope our new baby is a girl."

She is too cute! And smart as well. I love the things kids say. Hope you're feeling well. Can't wait to find out if it's a boy or girl. Not much longer now!!
