Camp Wannameechameg

Our family of 6 soon to be 7!

When we walked in the door at Dad and Mom Brodine's tonight we were greeted by Mom and Liz. "Welcome to Camp Wannameechameg!". With 7 kids all under the same roof and a dog it is like a camp. And, oh yes there will be "mess hall duty", "latrine duty", "team competitions", and I think I heard a rumor about prizes.

I just have to say the Brodines are creative! Reading that sign and learning of their enthusiasm to help us in accomplishing this life dream delighted me. It is hard to put into words. Thank you Dad, Mom, Gary, and Liz! We are praying for your 10 days! And, we hope you get a nice break when camp is over.

Please pray for the kids as we are away.

Adalynne is so sweet and tender. She was having a hard time. She cried some. It is a long time and we will be far away. But, she knows it is worth it. Please pray that God will use this to teach her already to depend on Him. Pray that she will have peace and joy. Pray that she will be a help and have a wonderful time.

Elie was bubbling over with joy. In the car she squealed a loud happy squeal and said, "I am soooooooo happy because Maren is coming home!". She already has songs and books ready to go.

Joe was smiley and chasing his cousins around. He too is excited for Meg to come home. And, he enjoys the moment. Today he is delighting in chasing Brooklyn, Amorie, and Juliette and making them laugh.

Sam is ready to be the "big brother" for the 1st time. He is soooooooo glad that Maren is littler than him. And, he welcomed today with open arms.

Thanks so much for sharing our journey with us. God is helping us!
