The Rev. Gracie Rose

Gracie picked up my Bible, sat on the floor and proceeded to hold forth about Jesus and how to pray!! She kept questioning us, "Do you know about God?" What do we have here?????? The Grandmother's ok with this because Gracie also loves to dance!

Gracie's Visit to VCS

Gracie went to her first Virginia Christmas Spectacular! She loved it but when she got home she couldn't find her Papa and cried! But Papa returned! She and Papa have a "thing" going!! (And the Grandmother is trying hard not to be too jealous.)
