I don't have any pictures since I am on Scott's computer and somehow my camera got wet today at the pool ... SHOCKER I KNOW !!! ... I will steal Suzanne's soon ... The MAYVALL'S (Oatsvall and Mayernick Families) are doing so well ... They kids are playing, swimming, watching basketball, using the potty every 5 minutes, eating everything in site, and looking forward to our DISNEY TRIP tomorrow ... Yep we will be 22 people strong STORMING Disney together (and reping the 147 gear)... Suzanne and I are blessed enough to have some great friends and family joining us on this trip to help out w/ the kids and allow us to enjoy FL as a big family ... THANK YOU BOOBOO/RETTA/ANNA/ABBY/MALLORY ...

So now to the REAL stuff ... Daisy is always telling me "MAMA COME" ... no matter if she wants me to sit beside her, get in the pool w/ her, sleep w/ her, eat w/ her, or take her to the potty ... She simply wants me w/ her and it has me thinking about the 147 MILLION ORPHANS of the world that are whispering in their hearts, yelling in the sleep, or dreaming daily of  "MAMA COME" ...  This is not going to be a new challenge from me because I am a broken record when it comes to the orphan crisis, but if God has put it on your heart in any capacity to consider adoption then please take the next step ... There is NO GUESS work about it because their are children WAITING for "MAMA COME" ...

Each time Daisy says it, I can literally hear the Lord calling me ... It is HIS voice I hear coming out of that angelic little voice ... It is His eyes that light up when we cuddle up together or jump in the pool...

I just can't say enough how the adoption journey starts with one BIG HUGE FAITH STEP ... From a new tired, exhausted, joyful, happy, stressed, crazy, peaceful mother of 6, I can say each minute is worth it ...  A CHILD IS WORTH IT ...

MORE TO COME FROM FLORIDA  ...

I feel like a could list a lot of scripture to describe the things I feel in my heart right now, but the bottom line is I am a mess and just thankful that the Lord can still use me, work through me, and teach me more about Him !!!  Please continue to pray !!!

We have arrived safely and checked in to our room for the night ... CAN'T WAIT TO RISE EARLY and head to Jinja to see my babies !!!  Love You All ... Please keep us all in your prayers ... SO MUCH MORE TO COME !!!

The excitement is bubbling over here about our trip tomorrow ... I can't wait to board a plane w/ Jeremiah and watch through his eyes all that he sees ... Jeremiah has a very tender heart and I am praying God shows him many things ... I want him to understand that the children he meets, plays with, and sees are his brothers and sisters ... I want him to open his heart further to what God's will is for his life not man or ours ... I want him to see a God that can do the impossible ... I want him to learn about deep faith like I did when I was in Uganda ... I want him to understand that life is only worth living if you live it for CHRIST ... I want him to come home and share with his friends, his brother and sisters and his dad how AFRICA CHANGED HIM ... I want when he steps into a classroom, on the court, on stage, in church, or on the football field how he can IMPACT people for Christ ...

I could go on and on, but the bottom line is that this mama's heart is full ... I can't wait for Jeremiah to meet his brother and sister ... He has talked non-stop this week about meeting them and how they will love him ... I say AMEN to that !!!

Please continue to pray and I will do my best to update as internet allows ...
