He darted from tree to tree. He gleefully threw leaves into the air. And then, inexplicably, little Cason bent over backwards into a tabletop pose. His parents watched in amusement, but not surprise. Such is the life of a family with four kids - you never know what new skills they've picked up along the way!
I've known Pat and Gloria for a few years now, ever since I started going to the same church in 2014. They've been married for 12 years (I know, they still look like newlyweds!), and you can tell just by watching their family that the Yaos have built up a beautiful family on a solid foundation of love, respect, and FUN!
The kids tend to be more reserved and behaved on Sunday mornings, but I loved seeing them let loose at our park session! Addie and Laina were the best older sisters, sprinting through the trees to make the younger two laugh. Cason constantly hammed it up for the camera, and youngest Kayli took some steps on her own before returning to the comfort of her parents' arms.
Gloria and Pat, thanks for meeting me on a precious Saturday morning and letting me spend time with your family! I'm looking forward to growing with you over the years and seeing your children grow into the strong and compassionate adults you are raising them into. Love you all!
