Remembering Gracie with a million smiles today mixed with tears. I met Gracie in Hong Kong as our families were adopting together. She was 5 years old and the cutest little sweetheart. She and my son Chase became fast friends during our time in China and that friendship never ended. We spent vacations at the beach in the summer and many spring breaks together since we lived in separate states. She and Tia were like daughters to me and Carla was my kindred spirit sister. Gracie you were like this flower I laid down for you. Fresh cut flowers never last as long as we would like, but when we have them in full bloom, they bring unspeakable joy and beauty and fragrance to any room. You brought the very same to everyone who was blessed to know you. We love and miss you deeply, but we know we will see you again sweet Gracie.
