It’s always nice getting together with this great adoption group and having our children get reacquainted on special occasions throughout the year, here we are making Won Ton’s.
Came straight from our girls soccer game, no time to change. I didn’t grab my camera either, at least the cell phones nowadays have such good cameras, I’m liken my Galaxy Note 2. I’m behind the camera in all pics, just where I like to be :)
Cindy graciously offered her fun backyard to host the event. When I saw Sophie and Sage swinging on her swings (should’ve got a picture), it seemed like just yesterday they were on those same swings, at age 3 1/2, swinging for the first time ever, and you should’ve heard their giggles. Such great memories. And I’m glad my teenage boys joined us, thanks Cindy for letting us gather in your beautiful backyard!
New friends… so cute as she walked up and asked if she could play with my girls, then joined right in.
Tramp time…
Trying to crack the egg…
Tasty Potluck. Many brought some authentic Chinese dishes. I brought my kids favorite, Orange Chicken.
Listening to this cool conversation in Mandarin, between my son and Cindy’s cute boy, enjoying how well they were speaking. Josh has done great with the language lately, and is teaching a little to the girls. Sophie and Sage are excited to take Mandarin in 6th grade. Although they spoke Cantonese in China, they have learned some Mandarin from some after school classes, I think they’ll catch on quick!
Water Balloon Volley Ball.
Funny, a few days after, a friend messaged me on facebook saying a little birdie told her to tell my son to text the cute redhead he met at the BBQ, small world.
Love that my girls like to be partners with their biggest heroes, their brothers
Oh my gosh, these two little Polynesian toddlers are stinkin’ cute! Her adoption story is pretty miraculous, what one can do with desire, love, and perseverance! Such blessings!
We had to leave early, so this sweet friend made a quick duck tape wallet for Sage.
Such wonderful people that has been a part of our lives through adoption. Adoptive parents are some of the best! I’m not tooting my own horn, I’m talking about all those I’ve come to know through adoption, personally and through adoption blogs.

Love this! Meeting up with a mom this week who lives in a neighboring city who has adopted one and in the process of number two. Can't wait to meet her! Hope our girls will be great friends and a great source of strength for each other.
