Grown-up girl

I know this blog is totally out of context, but I wanted to post this picture for Grace's Daddy and show him what happens when he goes out of town for a week... the girls go wild! This was the first time that Grace has ever had her toenails painted, and it surprised me that she wanted it done. I think she saw me doing it, and thought, "If it is good enough for Mom, must be good for me!" I painted one nail cautiously, but she kept asking for more, so I did them all. You know my tenderhearted child, so this is really shocking. She freaks out with a stamp on her hand at story hour. Just hope she likes it tomorrow morning when the socks come off...
P.S. I thought you might find this little story funny from the past few days. It probably is funnier to hear her say it- maybe I can get her on video tomorrow. For over a month, Grace has been saying spoon as "spoon". Regularly. Consistently. On the day before we got home from vacation, she bumped her head pretty badly. Two days later, now home, she wanted a spoon. It came out like this- "shuuma". We had no idea what she was talking about until we saw her point at it. Do you think she has a concussion or just decided the latter word was a lot more fun to say?
