The afternoon started with an adoptive Mom and her 14 year old adopted daughter speaking about their experience volunteering in an orphanage in Wuhan, Hubei Province. They volunteered through Half The Sky Foundation and spent 2 weeks this past summer in China.
Then they had crafts and games for the little ones. The games were organized and run by the older girls.
Next was story-telling time. The "As They Grow" group acted out a story for the little ones.
We then enjoyed a Chinese buffet dinner. After dinner was a talent show. It was so cute to see the children perform.
What a great day!

What a fun day! I love your colorful collage!
Wow, Jen. Looks like you have a fabulous group. And the smiles on the kids faces say it all. Love your photos and wish I could have heard the mom and daughter speak about their experience in Hubei. We would love to volunteer with HTS.
Hugs
Jennifer ~ This looks like such a great time! And I am very much wondering if we might have some mutual friends. E-mail me... because I either recognize your daughter's name from trolling referral sites a long time ago, or we might both know a family in what I think is your area.
