Her due date was before Thanksgiving, but she was my only child who went a week past her due date. She says it’s because she was so warm inside my belly and she didn’t want to be cold.

Grace is sweet, kind, thoughtful, loving, and determined.

She’s also a perfectionist and likes to accomplish something on the first try.

She is very artsy and loves to color and create. She’s also athletic and a very fast runner. And she loves to dress up, sing, and dance. Basically when she grows up she could teach ALL the specials at school.

Grace is very tidy. Her room is always neat, and if she sees a mess she’ll clean it without me asking her to. It’s wonderful.

When she’s tired, she’s either very dramatic and crying or she’s excessively giggly and goofy.

Grace loves to help, even if people don’t particularly want or need her help. That doesn’t always sit well with Tessa.

Grace is full of personality, and we absolutely love her for it.
