This picture is more than a picture!! It is a miracle. At some point after this picture was taken, my camera was lost.
I thought it was stolen because I looked everywhere. I cleaned out the car and checked under every seat.twice.(probably more, and Tim checked a couple of times also).
All that to say I'd written the camera off as gone. The last time I saw it for sure was January 12th. At Josiah's birthday party...
This morning my husband came in shooting pictures on my camera.
It was under the front seat of my van.
I think Sarah had the best explanation...she told me (in a five year old matter-of-fact way) "Mommy, the angels must have found it and put it back where you last had it so you would find it..."
No kidding, I checked under that seat probably 100 times.
I've had something like this happen to me twice before in my life (at least twice that I realized). The first time I was just a kid. I don't really remember it but my mom loves to tell the story.
My mom and I were on the 5 fwy in California and her car stalled in the middle of the freeway. A bus stopped behind her and the driver helped her pull off to the side of the road and then left...when she turned around to wave thanks he was gone, and so was the bus, nowhere to be seen.
Another time, when Tim and I were just dating, we went to a movie. We stopped to buy candy at a store and Tim pulled out his wallet to give me some money. Later, he used his wallet to pay for the tickets. When we left the theater we stopped to get gas in his car and his wallet was gone. No wallet. We called his mom from a payphone to let her know we'd be late because we were goint back to the theater to look for his wallet. We went back to the theater and an usher even took us into the theater with a flashlight to look. We called his mom to let her know we hadn't found it...and she said she had looked in his room and it was in his backpack!
I am fully convinced that angels walk among us!!
One of them found my camera!!
