Gracyn: ugh, i just can’t handle this.
Mackenzie: handle what?
Gracyn: all this napping!
While walking…
Gracyn: ah! i have a booty wedge!
Mackenzie: you mean a wedgie?
Gracyn: yeah, it went up my butt!
Randomly…
Gracyn: i have ten fingers and ten toes.
Mackenzie: me, too.
Gracyn: are you thinking what I’m thinking?
Mackenzie: what?
Gracyn: that’s ten cool!
Sitting at the counter while coloring…
Gracyn: ahhh. i love being naked.
After getting a fork full of birthday cake…
Gracyn: oh come here, you!
Discussing baby names…
Gracyn: mom, the baby’s name should be Prince. Prince Oakley. And he’ll be my big brother when he grows up.
Mackenzie: but we don’t know it’s a boy or girl yet.
Gracyn: IT’S A BOY, OK!?
Randomly one afternoon:
Gracyn: mom, can you sign me up for singing lessons?
Mackenzie: yeah sure!
Gracyn: that way I can play the trumpet and guitar.
We woke up to her singing one Saturday morning to the tune of Moana…
Gracyn: i wish i could be the perfect daughter. everyone needs to wake up now. i’m ready to be awake.
While driving up I-29 through Missouri…
Gracyn: mom, is this Missouri?
Mackenzie: yes
Gracyn: how big is Missouri anyway?
Mackenzie: oh it’s pretty big
Gracyn: is there anything in Missouri?
Mackenzie: yes but not really where we are right now
Gracyn: well is there at least somewhere we can go pee?!
Out of the blue one day…
Gracyn: mom, you know that word you say when you’re frustrated?
Mackenzie: yeah…
Gracyn: can i say that word when i’m 62?
Mackenzie: you can say anything when you’re 62…
Gracyn: k, good.
For the record, that word is “dammit”…. 😉
