Gracisms. . .

1. "It makes my heart broke. . ." Her comment after she put all of her "guys" in the house she made out of books. I often tell her that my heart aches when she does something extra sweet. I assume that is where she was trying to go. . .

2. "You are the best mom. . ." Oh, this is one of my all time favorites! My Mom bought her a book titled The World's Greatest Mom. Since reading it at Amma's last weekend she has spontaneously told me that I am the best mom at least 10 times! She usually looks me square in the eyes and follows it with a body hug (where she grabs whatever body part is in reach and squeezes tight). Thanks for the book. By the way, for those of you that don't know, I have the World's Greatest Mom!

3. "Are you Daddy?" Tonight when I put Gracie to bed I told her that Daddy would be home tomorrow. She repeated "Tomorrow?" and I told her after she slept it would be tomorrow. Some 30 minutes later she called out for me, so I went in to her room silently and began rubbing her back. That is when she looked up at me and said "Are you Daddy?" She is so excited for Daddy to get home, and so am I !
