On the way to the ferry to see Mommy off to work.
Shana: Grace, you know in a few months you will go to school.

Shana: Wow, Grace, you're good at dancing.
Grace: Thank you, Mama. [Then takes a grandiose bow.]

While trying to get Grace ready for bed, she runs into our bedroom (a delay tactic), then peeks out our window. She sees our neighbors through their kitchen window and begins to shout out and says, "Hi." A dialogue ensues.
Grace: Good morning, J---!
Neighbor: It's not morning.
Shana (whispering to Grace): Say, "Good night!"
Grace (yelling): Good night! Sweet dreams!
