This was so funny: Esther was diligently trying to do her ABC puzzle, and Gracie was just as diligently trying to give love. She repeatedly came up behind E to hug. Esther was mostly patient with her, but tried to be upset and hide her smile =)

More and more they are playing together, and Esther is doing so well at learning her "big sis" role, although it is not always smooth waters. It is clear that Grace loves Esther and wants to be around her. I pray that they will be good friends- and I think we're on our way.
