We Made All Our Mistakes on Her- (Ep 26)

<p>Meet our oldest daughter.</p><p>MaKenna was four or five when she ran a gumball machine at the studio. She was sixteen when she drove herself to the largest farmers market in Pensacola with healthy chocolate she had stayed up until 3 in the morning making. She was eighteen when she talked her way into ISR infant swim instructor training, a program that didn't take anyone under twenty-one, and paid the eight to ten thousand dollars herself. It wasn't even half of what she had saved from chocolate and flipping furniture.</p><p>She never worked a normal job.</p><p>She was also our test pilot. Everything we figured out as parents, we figured out on her first.</p><p>In Part 1, MaKenna and her husband Josiah sit down with us and tell the truth about what that was like. Being the oldest of eleven and being called "the second mom." The teen years when she didn't want all these siblings. Why family camp turned it around for her. Walking away from college. The swim business she built instead.</p><p>Then Josiah's side. He grew up fifth of twelve in the Crevier family, whose ministry, Champions Forever, juggles, unicycles, and spins basketballs to share the gospel everywhere from prisons to NBA Finals halftime shows. We met his family at a national volleyball tournament in Dayton, Tennessee. His father looked at Allison and said, "I have a son you need to meet."</p><p>That son was in South Korea at the time.</p><p>Married almost six years, expecting their third baby, living on our family land, and building their home without a loan.</p><p>We made all our mistakes on her. She still turned out amazing.</p>
