Gradually over the course of the past week or so, Tess has started calling Gracie by name, or at least, by Tess's version of her name: "Gray – hee." I have to admit that we have been encouraging Tess to use Grace's name for a while now. Although it is incredibly sweet that Tess's nickname for her big sister was one of her first words, we don't think Grace would appreciate being called "Dodo" as a teenager. But for the past year or so, "Dodo" has been an important part of our daily life. I'll miss her.
