A Precious Baby Named Gracie.

Hi All,
This is my precious Grandaughter Gracie, she is now 5 weeks old, and growing beautifully as you can see. We call Gracie everything from Bumble Bee, because she likes to prop her bottom out cutely hehe, making her look like a Bumble Bee, to Strawberry Shortcake, as she has the most beautiful hair, so maybe write about Gracie pertaining to her metaphorically as either a Bumble Bee, Lady Bug or Strawberry Shortcake, or anything that comes to mind when you see her gorgeous self. I happen to think she is one beautiful little Angel Princess, but then again I am her Grandma hehe, so would think so.
Gracie means the world to me, and I am so proud to be her Grandmother. Please do this sweet baby justice by writing beautifully for her.

    Just a little ditty for Gracie

    The Princess Arrives

    Once long ago in a fable they say
    The Elves watched the children both night and day
    In a land called Australia that’s magical
    The wee ones were very atypical

    The magic wood elves were so very strong
    Dancing and playing with magical song
    We need a child to be in our charge
    Just a wee baby, not very large

    So with a prayer… and some elf magic dust
    The heavens parted, a tremendous thrust
    The woodlands shook and when the dust cleared
    Just like a miracle, Gracie appeared

    All the Elves cheered and shouted her name
    Gracie the Princess her throne be acclaimed
    So now in the woods and all through the land
    Gracie will rule with a gentle hand.

    She is adorable!! I can picture her sticking that bottom up and looking like a pretty little bumble bee.

    My son used to be cheerio- he had this perfect little o he would make with his mouth that looked just like a cheerio ring. Sometimes I think the little names are more meaningful than the birth given names.
