Yesterday as I walked down the stairs, the strap on my beloved blue Crocs suddenly broke, causing me to trip and land with a big thud. This morning Grace noticed the loose strap, and decided she'd like to repair it for me. "I'm a good fixer," she said. She triumphantly returned a couple of minutes later, with the errant strap painstakingly Scotch-taped back onto the shoe. Very sweet, but not particularly effective. However, I find it adorable that Grace firmly believes that anything can be fixed — or created — using Scotch tape. She very clearly gets this from my grandfather, Gran-Gran, who was well known for his ability to fix — or create — anything using epoxy. Gran-Gran and Grace would have gotten along famously.
