Gracie’s Quote of the Day
February 7, 2009After about 10 minutes of the most insane Knock Knock jokes ever from Lucy and Grace, Jamie says:
“Knock Knock”
“Who’s There”
“I’m Bored”
“I’m Bored Who”
“I’m Bored of these Knock Knock Jokes.”
Lucy and Jamie start laughing.
Grace says, “Wait, that’s not even funny.”
Gracie’s Quote of the Day
February 5, 2009“Daddy, you stink.”
“What do I smell like?”
She smells Jamie again.
“You smell like an old daddy.”
Grace’s Quote of the Day
February 4, 2009The girls sat down to eat their supper tonight. Lucy got up, grabbed napkins, and started laying them out. Gracie seriously says, “Hmmmmmm…..my brain is thinking Tea Party.”
