This is our first family photo with all five of us. It sure was fun trying to get all five of us looking at the camera at the same time. Grace continues to amaze us with her tremendous progress.

This is a beautiful picture of all three of our children. God has truly blessed us. We are very thankful for them.

Here is a picture of our Moms and my Grandmother. We had a great time and my friends did a great job on the shower. Barry and the boys came also and had a good time.

The following is a poem that a friend wrote and gave to me at a shower for Grace. She did an awesome job of writing it. The part about "rainbow after the rain" is what Yuhong means. Kyndra has a gift for writing. Thanks Kyndra!

Not a baby, still a child
Lonely once for a while
God’s hand touched our hearts
Thousands of miles, far apart

A little angel, full of love
Grace Yuhong, gift from above
Heavens opened, as did a home
Never more to be alone

Welcoming arms, a brand new land
A precious girl in Jesus’ hand
My sweet child, no more pain
Truly a “rainbow after the rain”

It was God’s will, His master plan
Elmore family, a future began
An answer to prayer, fervent and deep
Always and forever, His to keep

I am a big girl now.

Grace can hold her own cup and everyday she does something new. She carries around a domino and talks on it like a telephone. The boys are doing a great job of being big brothers.

Watch how fast I type.

Check out my cool shades.

Yeah! We are playing in the sandbox.
