Thank Goodness for Honest People!!!!!

We ran some errands today. Wal-Mart was our last stop and after leaving we realized our diaper bag was left in the grocery cart. Chris raced back as we both prayed we would find it. I prayed over and over in my head, 'please let the bag be in the cart or please let an honest person find it and turn it in to lost and found'. I started to think of all that was in the bag and became more and more nervous if we couldn't find it.
I can't blog without putting up a pic.
Our diaper bag with my phone and wallet. My wallet pretty much has my whole life in it and to replace everything would have been such a pain.
We drove by where the cart was left and it was empty. So, we went inside to lost and found hoping someone had turned it in. Of course there were like a billion people in line before me. Chris said he was going to walk around. I thought he was walking around the store looking to see if anyone had our bag. Then I imagined this scenario where he sees the bag in a person's cart. He approaches them telling them that's our bag. Then the thief attacks Chris by hitting him with the bag and then runs off. It's crazy where your mind goes when you are nervously waiting in a long line. Finally, it was my turn at the service desk and asked if a diaper bag had been turned in. As I watched the clerk walk to the back to look for it, I saw it on the ground behind a table. Relief immediately followed:) How great is that!!! Everything was safely in the bag as it belonged. This reminded me of another time when I lost my wallet during the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. An honest person found my wallet and called phone numbers on a list inside and then turned it into the police station. Thank goodness for honest people. They still exist and prayers are answered!!!!
