While I know this is true.... this is on my mind today.
Do you know, that feeling in the pit of your stomach the moment you realize you've lost something that means a lot to you?
Well, I am in that boat now. Granted, this is a material thing, but very sentimental to me. My Chamila bracelet. I just got it for my 30th birthday. Between that and Christmas I had it filled pretty nicely.
My "brothers" charm made me smile every time I looked down at it... made me think of the beautiful love those boys share.
The ladybug charm, of course, made me hear "aye-eee-ugg, where are you" in my head. Zachary would play with the charms on the bracelet all the time, forever searching for his favorite friend...
My Mickey charm, my 30th birthday cake, the beach ball, the shopping bag, my muranio glass beads, mine and Paul's birthstones, my dog paw for the Biz- each charm represented something that means a lot to me.
People have asked me "have you looked in your clothes" "what about your desk" "your car?", and truthfully I have looked everywhere I can think possible. The laundry, in my shoes, etc... etc...
Prayers appreciated. They say once you stop looking you find it, right? Let's hope.

oh julie! i'm so sorry.
just recently lost my iPhone. drove all over town. even dug through a public trash can in the nastiest part of town where i happened to stop at redbox & throw out my trash. shaking. i drove to the last place possible. kids in back. trying not to let on to Carter that i was holding back tears & FEAR. but he must have thought something was up watching me dig through the trash b/c he randomly started praying "Jesus, help mommy find her phone." "Quickly." Anyway, I found it at the next stop.
Point: I get that deep in the pit of your stomach feeling. ICK!
And maybe if you have Adam pray God will have favor on the faith of a child!
