Conversation with Gracie, who is looking thru a
fashion magazine:
Gracie; "Gramma, I could never in a million years
have this. Ever. I know I can’t get this."
Me: "What is it?"
Gracie: "This! I really, really want this, and I
know I cant have it."
Me:"Listerine mouth wash? Its an ad for
Listerine."
G:racie" Oh....Never mind. I bet I will NEVER get
a surf board."
Me: "Why cant you get a surf board?"
Gracie: "Because.. I DONT SURF!"
Me: "Anything else you wanna be negative
about?"
G:racie "Well, my chap stick broke."
I get the feeling that the only thing that will turn
her frown upside down is a trip to Walmart.
Conversation with Gracie:
Gracie: "Duke said he had staples..in his
STOMACH!"
Me: "Maybe he had an operation."
Gracie: "Well, I don't know what an operation is,

Conversation with Gracie as we are in separate
bathroom stalls at the bowling alley:

Someone needs a nap!
Conversation with Gracie in Barnes and noble as she
chooses a dinosaur book:

Gracie: "Gramma, have you SEEN my brain? I like
all sortsa stuff."
Conversation with Gracie: "Gramma want a piece of
healthy gum?"
Me: "I don't think there is such a thing as
healthy gum."
Gracie: "It had a picture of oranges, kiwi and
lemons on it. IT IS HEALTHY!"

pretty, even if you're pretty!"

they were selling?"
Milo: "Drinks."
Me: "YOU KNOW WHAT THEY WERE SELLING! Miss Kitty
was a Madame!"
Milo: "No she wasn't...."

Conversation with Gracie;
Me: "What if your mom was president?"
Gracie: "my mommy? She can't be president."
Me: "Why not?"

Question from Grace " So gramma, say my dad
became president, does that mean we can, I mean all my family, live in the
penthouse?"

Conversation with Gracie while doing yoga and instead,

Conversation with Gracie, who now keeps a list of who
she loves, in order. To her, being moved to the bottom could be the worst thing
EVER in your life:
Gracie: "Gramma, Grandpa made me mad!"
Me: "Why?"
Gracie; "He told me to take care of my stuff and
I am tired! I am moving him to the BOTTOM of the list! GRANDPA! YOU are NOW at
the bottom of MY list!"
(Later that evening)
Me:"If I make you go upstairs now to sleep, are
you going to move me down on the list?"
Gracie: "Yes."
Me:"Then I guess I better let you cuddle
here."
(The next morning)
Gracie; "Grandpa, if you say I can live here, I
will move you back to the TOP of the list!"
Grandpa: "No way!"
Gracie: "Okay, then you are staying at the BOTTOM
OF THE LIST!"
(Later when saying good bye to Aunt Chelle, who did
her fairy make up)
Gracie: "Bye Aunt Chelle!"
Me; "Hey Gracie, where is Aunt Chelle on the
list?"
Gracie: "Number 2."
Me: "Only NUMBER 2??"
Gracie: "Okay number 1."
Me: "But I thought I was number 1!"
Gracie: "You are the number 1 before THAT number
1."
