So today I had a ditsy moment and I drove away with my hatchback open. I realized it about 1 minute later and noticed things had started falling out (after I had just driven out of our neighborhood) and immediately backtracked to grab anything that had fallen out, but I realized my laptop was not anywhere to be seen. I knew I had put it in the car. I was devastated! I started praying immediately that we could find it. I had to take my oldest to her soccer game, so we went and she played great. I kept praying. After the game, we went back home and looked everywhere in the neighborhood for it. I knew that someone must have taken it. I was so sick to my stomach. It was our nephew's birthday party so we headed there and the kids had a great time while I just was so sad and worried. I just kept praying that whoever took it would return it to me. Miracle of miracles, about 6:30 pm (7 hours after I lost it), a man Facebook messaged me and told me he had found my laptop! I couldn't believe it! I was elated! We went and picked it up and he said he found it a block further west from where I had even driven??!?!? I told him thanks many times (it was all I could o to not hug him for returning it to me) and we took it home. It was pretty beaten up but everything still works. I'm so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who answers prayers. I'm so grateful I got my laptop back and for the nice man who was willing to find me and get it back to me! I will never forget this experience. I hope my kids never do either and they remember that prayers are answered and how much Heavenly Father and Jesus love us!
