I coined a term way back when for the things Grace says. They're called "Grace-ism's!" She is such a clever child and says the darndest things at the funniest moments. I have tried to record many of them in her journal but I am sure that plenty have come from Grace's mouth, surprised the heck out of me, followed by laughter and amazement and then, sadly, forgotten.
The picture above captured one of these Grace moments... Uncle Flynn and Aunt Krista joined our family in Utah for Christmas. Flynn was comfortably enjoying his book on the couch when Grace appeared from the back bedroom where she had been quietly manipulating pen and paper. She came out, book in hand and sat down next to Flynn, mimicking his reading down to the hand placement. We had all commented on Flynn's goatee when he arrived for the holidays. Not being used to seeing him with facial hair, the kids were taken back. Grace demonstrated this with her quick thinking! She crafted her own goatee to include the missing hairs on the left side of his mouth! Apparently when Flynn was trimming up his goatee he accidentally clipped one of the sides. Needless to say we all grabbed our cameras and those two obliged by posing appropriately.
What a girl!
Immitation IS the highest form of flattery, Flynn!
