And I thought caring for 1 toddler was tough...

how about 76 kids??? A dear friend of ours, Meagan, has spent the last 2 years working at a mission in Zambia. She has recently decided to commit to serving at the orphanage for another year...she is one of the most amazing people I know! My sister left on Saturday evening to go spend a few weeks with Meagan. She flew *by herself* through Chicago, London, & Johannesburg (some of the busiest airports in the world), to reach Livingstone. My mom told me that she did finally make it there, after an assortment of delays. Please pray for my sister and for Meagan as they are caring for these precious children! I "borrowed" some of Meagan's pictures from Facebook to share...

Crystal...I knew you'd love this one! This picture is of triplets who were born in the middle of a road. They were brought to the hospital covered in sand and dirt. This is after they were bathed.

Who says a double stroller is just for 2???? How about 5 kiddos?

When trying to potty-train 25 toddlers at a time, it becomes a social event!


Meagan sent this picture as her Christmas card last year...it is so precious!



Isn't he ADORABLE? His name is George.


Babies getting ready to take a bath. In another picture, there are 5 kids in the tub at a time. :)

WOW!! I can't believe all those kiddos. SO Sweet! Please tell me that most of these kids get adopted out. I wish I could have that other set of triplets so they dont get split up. I can't believe the triplets were born in the street.
