Room to Grow: February 2011
http://onemoretogrow.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Our first Chinese New Year together. Finally, lil' S.'s new look. She's sportin' some serious lenses. It's been fascinating to watch her look around. The prescription is pretty strong! But, oh my goodness.total cuteness! Links to this post. Monday, February 7, 2011. Well, I know that everyone wants to know how lil S. is adjusting to life with us in the U.S. I will share some tidbits and some pictures. She still needs to find me when she is sleeping, to hold my hand. She liste...

Friday, June 24, 2011. This was taken by a good friend who was at the park with us today. She got a kick out of the Made in Ch*na t-shirt. Yep, we've got the best thing made in Ch*na right here at home with us. Love her to pieces! Links to this post. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. And maybe your heart will follow.

Room to Grow: May 2011
http://onemoretogrow.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 17, 2011. S loves to put on anyone else's shoes. Doing a little headband display. We'll work on the proper use of these some other day. First nail session with Mommy. She insisted on it once she saw big sister A.'s pretty pink nails. We've been taking A. to an Equestrian classes. That girl is in her element when she is with horses. The girls doing a little swinging in the back yard. Her first trip around the yard with Daddy on the tractor. Looks like another future grass mower is in the works.

Room to Grow: Afraid
http://onemoretogrow.blogspot.com/2012/04/afraid.html
Saturday, April 28, 2012. A few weeks ago we had a thunderstorm that started right.at.bedtime! Of all the times. So, since then, unless I am putting Sarah to bed, she tells whoever (usually Daddy or Drew) that she is afraid. "Sarah scared! It doesn't matter that there's no storm occurring at the moment. She just knows she's scared that one might start. This song is based on Psalm 56:3-4a. Here is a "translation" of the lyrics:. When I am afraid, I will trust in you. When I am afraid I will trust in you,.

Room to Grow: May 2012

Wednesday, May 9, 2012. Awful, Just Plain Awful. I don't know how things work in your house, but around here there's lots of singing. It's not always well done either. But, it's live and in person. So, it comes in all shapes and sizes, depending on the moment. It adds levity. It reduces stress. It makes the older kids' eyeballs roll all around their heads. They are all preteens/teens you know, so it's way.not.cool. We know, deep down, they like it though. So, what's today's song? You get what you need.

Room to Grow: How She Prays
http://onemoretogrow.blogspot.com/2012/04/how-she-prays.html
Tuesday, April 24, 2012. Ever since Sarah joined our family, she has always folded her little hands to pray with us. I attribute it to the miracle that where she lived, Shepherd's Field, was a group foster care facility run by a Christian couple. At each dinner when Harry says it's time to pray, she bursts out, "Sarah pray! So, either before or after Harry, she prays, too. Also, at any point throughout our day when I say it's time to pray, she has to have her turn. April 24, 2012 at 11:15 PM.

Special Time China: Home Sweet Home
http://specialtimechina.blogspot.com/2009/06/home-sweet-home.html
Thursday, June 11, 2009. We're home at last! And what a thrill is it to be able to post straight to the blog! Thanks, Mom, for uploading for me while we were gone.). Had to stand and swear or affirm that we'd care for these children. If I was emotional it was because this signaled that we were finally DONE with this excruciatingly long, arduous process. We were one of the only Hague families in the room; they even mentioned the fact that a Hague family was there. What an (ugh! On flight #2, GG again seem...

Room to Grow: One
http://onemoretogrow.blogspot.com/2012/04/one.html
Wednesday, April 25, 2012. There's one more little face that will know where to run when she's crying. There's one more little heart that will know where to run when she's rejoicing. There's one more little child who will know what it means to run into the arms of her daddy. There's one more little sister who will know what it's like to run with her siblings. There's one more little girl who will know that she will always have a place to run to that is safe and warm. April 26, 2012 at 10:20 AM.
