No Greater Joys Adoption: A's Ornaments
http://nogreaterjoysadoption.blogspot.com/2009/12/amilynns-ornaments.html
No Greater Joys Adoption. Monday, December 28, 2009. When you look at this picture you might think- no big deal it is just a bunch of ornaments. In fact, these are the older children's "first year" ornaments and a family ornament from 2004. None of these were for A. This was the first year she noticed that she did not have a "special" ornament or any other ornaments with her name on them. So we needed to fix this situation immediately.

No Greater Joys Adoption: Weird Encounter
http://nogreaterjoysadoption.blogspot.com/2010/09/weird-encounter.html
No Greater Joys Adoption. Friday, September 3, 2010. C, A, and I went to Sam's Club about a week ago and while we were there we had a very unusual experience. Let me first say that it is very rare for me to get questions or comments about A being from China or being adopted. I do love answering legitimate questions about our adoption, however sometimes it is a good thing that encounters like these are rare. So the man begins to speak to A in Mandarin!

No Greater Joys Adoption: "I miss China."
http://nogreaterjoysadoption.blogspot.com/2010/09/i-miss-china.html
No Greater Joys Adoption. Friday, September 3, 2010. I miss China.". Yesterday I was taken by surprise when I heard A tell K that she missed China. I have asked A a few times in the past three years if she remembered anything about China. Every time the answer is the same. NO. She was just over 3 1/2 when she came home to us. So it is totally understandable for her not to remember, so why now does she say that she misses it? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 7 1/2 Year Old. American World Adoption Blog.

No Greater Joys Adoption: A's Trip to the Doctor
http://nogreaterjoysadoption.blogspot.com/2009/12/amilynns-trip-to-doctor.html
No Greater Joys Adoption. Sunday, December 27, 2009. A's Trip to the Doctor. Today we traveled about an hour and a half for A's 6 month check-up. I know that these appointments are important, but it seems like the same thing every time. They check her out then send us to the lab to completely traumatize her. She has gotten better though. Thank goodness! It makes all the pain go away and everything feel magically better. At least it will be another 6 months before we have to do it all again. 7 1/2 Year Old.

No Greater Joys Adoption: Happy Birthday A!!!
http://nogreaterjoysadoption.blogspot.com/2010/10/happy-birthday.html
No Greater Joys Adoption. Monday, October 11, 2010. A turned 7 yesterday. I can not believe that she is 7 already. She is such a petite child. I am reminded of it every week when she goes to gymnastics and is one of the older children in her class and still the smallest. But she sure is a bundle of energy, very graceful and determined to do her best. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 7 1/2 Year Old. American World Adoption Blog.

No Greater Joys Adoption: Two Years Ago Today.
http://nogreaterjoysadoption.blogspot.com/2009/12/two-years-ago-today_27.html
No Greater Joys Adoption. Sunday, December 27, 2009. Two Years Ago Today. It has now been two years since that wonderful day in a far away land when we were united with A. It seems as though A has always been with us, so to stop and think that it has only been two years seems kind of strange. I am so thankful that God chose us to be A's family. I don't think that we did anything "special" to be "chosen". . . we were faithful! We have been so blessed by this one small child. June 4, 2008. June 4, 2007.

No Greater Joys Adoption: A's Foster Family in China
http://nogreaterjoysadoption.blogspot.com/2011/04/as-foster-family-in-china.html
No Greater Joys Adoption. Wednesday, April 6, 2011. A's Foster Family in China. One of my adoption yahoo groups has been discussing their child's foster family in China. The discussions have led me to write this post about our experience with A. April 10, 2011 at 11:26 PM. We are actually waiting to go get our Guangxi girl who turned 3 last month. We just sent her a photo album and some little gifts. Did you get to do this? Did she seem to recognize you? April 10, 2011 at 11:52 PM. 7 1/2 Year Old. Do not...
