Overall challenges here: planning your dynamics, breathing, and musical ideas. Being interesting because your SOUND is interesting, both because it is a pleasant, consistent sound, and because you control the tone color changes to serve the phrasing.
PLANNING YOUR BREATHING: devise a plan for your breathing, mark it, and stick to it.
NOTE-BY-NOTE SHAPING: this passage needs not only good large scale phrasing, but timbral changes within each long note. For example, the opening C and E, both needs a sense of overall phrasing toward the F, but each note should also start gently and open, or "bloom."
RECORDINGS: listen to a couple different recordings of this, and I am sure you will get ideas for tempo, breathing spots, phrase peaks, etc.
GRACE NOTES: as you will hear in most recordings (please tell me if I am wrong), the grace notes are usually played on the beat.
