When I was photographing kids professionally, I’d have them say pizza. After they say it, you have to pause and wait a sec or two for them to close their mouths and then they’ll smile. You have to time it right or start all over.
Gracie is using “gifted” as a possessional adjective incorrectly. She would have been better off saying; “the day of gifted snow…that had been ‘given’ to us.”
One’s too many; a hundred’s not enough.
