Love Stories of My Sweet Kids. Monday, August 29, 2011. The cash I had in my wallet Friday night. 3644 gallons of gas. I never can stop at zero cents! Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday's Large Java Chillers from America's favorite drive-in. Which I think are gross anyway). 2 happy meals and a grilled chicken salad from the Golden Arches. 1/2 of my gas bill for the month of July. 6 lunches for this kid at his school. And one month of food for this kid in his home. If you can give, please do. Links to this post.

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.

Room to Grow: May 2011

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,.

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.

Bub 'n Sis: November 2011

Love Stories of My Sweet Kids. Saturday, November 26, 2011. Have you heard that my Jenna is a monkey? Well, if you hadn’t, now you have. She’s a climber. Climbs up the cabinets, climbs up on beds, climbs up on the table, climbs up the rock wall on the playset, climbs into her crib, climb, climb, climb. We were afraid she was getting a BIT to efficient at climbing to be able to stay safely in her bed, so a few weeks ago, we made the leap ourselves to take our baby out of the crib. It’s time, he says.

Love Stories of My Sweet Kids. Thursday, July 21, 2011. First Grade, WHAT? He was just enrolled in First Grade! Funny jokes. They start to become dependable in larger tasks, follow several step directions and come to logical conclusions on their own. Folks, independence really takes off here, and your babies, they aren't babies anymore! So kiss those baby cheeks while they are there, because sometime during first grade, they grow up too.
