Gracie & her trike.

these photos show her almost the same way i picture her in my mind.  

her sweet little face full of wonder.  her wild curls dancing in the sunlight.  the way she sits and takes in all the beauty around her.  that one little bumble bee sticker on her foot.  how she sings to herself.  her big brown eyes that remind me of my grandma.  the way she folds her hands like a proper lady and then two seconds later jumps straight into the dirt.  her heart full of joy.  oh, how i love her.  

my gracie girl.
