So, we decided to go to the park yesterday because it was such a beautiful day. Our favorite park is Elmwood park because it is always clean and has a really fun playground. We were having a good time and then a bus full of 3rd graders came and we decided to go home because of we worried about the little kids being trampled on by the big kids. I decided that we should go to the mall and walk around and maybe look for some shoes for a banquet. Well I found some shoes and also promised Porter we would get a pretzel. When I got up to the register to pay, my wallet was gone. I thought...'oh great, now what?' I started looking through my bag, and it wasn't there. Porter was flipping out because he wanted a pretzel, so I was removing him and us from the store as quickly as possible. Looked in the car...no wallet, looked at the park...no wallet. I decided to give up and just go home so that I could put my bank cards on hold. On the way home I said a little prayer asking Heavenly Father to help us find my wallet and if someone found it, help them to be kind and return it to us. Well, I got home and there was a message on my answering machine from a lady who found my wallet in the parking of Elmwood park. I said a prayer of gratitude and hopped in the car and got my wallet back. I was too drained by that point to go back to the mall and buy those shoes and the pretzel. It was a crazy time!

I am so glad there are a lot of good people out there who do things like return wallets. It's too bad we only hear about the bad stuff in the news.
