Last night Nate woke up in the middle of the night in a frantic hurry because he had to use the restroom. I started to assess him to make sure he wasn't sick.
Mom: "Nate, does your belly hurt?:
Nate: "Not anymore."
Mom: "It hurt before?"
Nate: "Well......it did earlier, but not necessarily when Gracie got home."
Necessarily. What 4 year old uses the word necessarily? I don't even think Grace used a word like necessarily at 4.
In other news, today was Gracie's Track and Field Day at school. In years past, the kids never really competed against each other for first place, second place, etc. because they were in Pre-K and Kindergarten. However, Grace, now being in First Grade, got to compete for the first time against her classmates. There was a 50 yard dash, a 100 yard dash, a softball throw and a standing broad jump. Grace has been working hard practicing for these events for the last several weeks at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Well, I am proud to say that she won First Place in the 50 yard dash, Second Place in the 100 yard dash, and she says she thinks she may have won third in the jump. She did compete against only the first grade girls, which there are 5 of, but we are still very proud of her and she is pretty proud, too.

Way to go, Gracie!!Hard work and determination paid off:) Think she take after her mommy:)By the way, I think the new shoes you got her last week gave her extra mental assurance that she couldn't lose!:)And I am really proud of her in that she wsn't all upset that she didn't win first place in the 100; that she could be happy for her friend! She really has a sweet nature.
AND:
Nate is a trip! Who knows what he says in conversations with Chip and Dale:)
