Gracie:  What do you want?

Ellie:  Can I borrow your dress tonight?  The purple one.  The one that's too tight on you now that you're fat and outta shape more fluffy.


Gracie:  I guess so.  But don't get it dirty.

Ring * Ring * Ring

Gracie, it's for you...

  Ellie:  Hey, I saw you talking to cousin Opie there.  Were you talking about me?  What did he say?  Does he like me?  Did he say I'm cute? What did you say?


Gracie:  Listen, it's not always about you kid.  We were reminiscing about Obedience School.  We went there together a few years back.


Ellie:  Seriously?  You?  Obedience school?  BOL!!  And you don't even obey!!  How ironic is that?!  


Gracie:  If you weren't my niece I'd...


Ellie:  What?  You'd what?


Gracie:  Never mind.  Just don't forget, I want the dress back in one piece and without your doggie dribble all over it.  Got it kid?

Ellie:  Sure thing Grace.  And... ummm...  sorry about the pee on the ruffle.  Sometimes the excitement is a little too much....
