Grace brought home a book called In the Dark Dark Wood which she can made that she can read.
That rocks so hard. Go Grace!
Zoe: Don't think it's a good spot, sir. She still has the advantage over us. Mal: Everyone always does. That's what makes us special.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's so excellent for Grace!
There's not a vaccine, I don't think.
I got one when I was a kid. It's why I tested positive the last couple times they did the skin test, and then I have to have my lungs x-rayed to prove that I'm not actually TB Mary.
Okay, time to send that email I've been dodging.
Well, after I pour myself some fizzy orange-flavoured water and grab my dinner muffin. Then status report--why are those and timesheets the only things in work life on a par with performance reports in terms of pain?
(TV is playing "All creatures great and small" and I'd no idea I had feels from this...)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
That's amazing. Go Gracie!
Oh, and that reminds me, I never did testify to the awesomeness of Kat's niece, but she is, indeed, quite awesome! She's at college near me, and I am the friend of the family she can call if things get squirelly, but she hasn't needed help in a long time, because, awesome. I really love being the friend of the family person, though, because I had that person when I was in college, and it was so great. When I had a trauma, she got us out of there and put us up in her condo for a weekend, and it was just great to have someone nearby I knew I could go to.

The who with the what now?!?!? That's so exciting! I had no idea.
She does an awful lot of vocalizing. I understand her the best and it's like dealing with a kid who is learning to speak, but with a better vocabulary. We were walking through our little town today (from the bookstore to the coffee shop) and the decorations on the trees lit up. She said, "Orange lights! Pumpkins!" She loves communicating.
She can also sing some of the imperial march. It's pretty quiet, but totally adorable.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, wait, is that True Orange orange flavored fizzy water? Did you get the True Orange and True Lime and are they as awesome as the True Lemon? I need to know! I saw a lemonade version, but thought I wouldn't like it, because I don't need any sweet in my water, just acid.

Kat,

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Go Grace! I just told the family and they were all so happy to hear that. Grace is totally my hero.

I really love that you get to be a friend of a the family! I think her first year, she really needed that and now she has found her groove.
I need to send Des a something. I sent her sister Danielle granola but Desiree is trying to lose weight. Maybe just an amazon gift card?
Other things Grace can do now. Go up steps without holding a hand or the railing. Drinking through a straw (she loves the lime refreshers from Starbucks). Writing her name.
