Hello from Rainy Fl.!
We arrived in Fl. on Sat. afternoon and enjoyed our first evening at our resort, Give Kids The World. This place is amazing, they have 8,000 volunteers and wonderful amenities. This place is vacation in and of it's self. They drop off gifts each morning for the kids, have ice cream from 7:30 am - 9pm, they have horse back riding and the characters come and meet and greet each morning. They will even have two characters, Mayor Clayton and his wife come to your villa and tuck your kids in at night. We are overwhelmed with joy and excitement.

On Sunday we headed out to the Animal Kingdom and went on a Safari, saw lots of animals and then headed up Mt. Everest to face the Yeti. We have laughed and cried in joy. Last night we went to the Magic Kingdom and saw the fireworks and light parade. We were there till after 11pm and Marc and I didn't get to bed till around 2am. So this morning we slept in till around 10. The kids really needed it. Then we ate lunch and went to the Magic Kingdom. We watched the princesses dance, we rode lots of rides and then on our way through the castle we were talking about the restaurants inside and we decided to try and see if we could get in. I had tried to make reservations but there were no openings online. We took a chance and just asked. THEY HAD AN OPENING! We all got to dine a the THE ROYAL TABLE, we had our own personal photo shoot with Cinderella and then four other princesses came around to our tables and spent time talking with the kids and taking pictures. Zaachi didn't want to wash his face tonight because he had red lips on his cheek from Snow White. Xavier was disappointed he didn't get a kiss, he only got a side hug. LOL!
So many people have gone over and above for Zaachi, it blows my mind. Xavier said today that he was amazed at how many nice people there are.
Speaking of nice people, many of you have helped with our backyard and some even gave funds for extra money for the trip and we are at a loss for words. I can't express how we feel but we really feel, LOVED and SUPPORTED! Thank you for pouring love on our little man and ALL of our kids. Sins of others has made life difficult for our kids, not to mention the reality of our mortality that we experience with Zaachi each day, but God has not allowed the circumstances to overwhelm or destroy them, he has help them through it and made them even stronger and more reliant on him. God has used each of you to help do that. It takes a community to raise a child and we are so glad you are a part of ours.

Susie

LOVE ya all:)
