The Many Faces of Grace

so we have quite the character for a daughter - many might say she is just like her mother - which I am sure is always a compliment!!! Whomever she takes after, she keeps us on our toes these days!! Most of the time she is such a joy - she never stops talking, moving, exploring or wondering what is the next neat things she can learn about!! Grace is not really into sitting still and doing anything!!! She does LOVE to read books but does even that in her own little way - usually climbing all over the person reading but never taking her eyes off the pages - she can quote many of her books by memory and will remind you if you "missed" a page!!! Grace LOVES to help around the house - she empties the dishwasher, helps cook dinner and LOVES to clean Riley for us - She loves to do almost anything as long as we are doing it with her - not much on playing alone these days.
Prayers are so cute - every night she says her prayers and thanks Jesus for all kinds of things - usually it is always Hannah & Connor, the sky and Santa but you never really know what else she will come up with. She will remind us if we forget to say her prayers too!!

She still loves to dress up and has become quite the little mommy to her babies. She also loves playing with her dollhouse and princess castles. Lately her favorite toy has become her little people nativity set with baby Jesus!!
She is a talker like no other and something the things that come out of her mouth amaze us!! No telling what she is telling her teachers at school about us!! She picks up on EVERYTHING and we have to be very careful what we say in front of her!! She is also quite the little singer and can sing along to all her favorite Silly Songs in the car!!
What a JOY and challenge this age is - it is such a challenge to be consistent and remember that she is just a little sponge right now taking it all in!!!
