Good Karma

It's been a while again. Not sure where the time flies, but we've continued to stay busy.  Last week, Elizabeth met with a family looking for a babysitter.  They live on the "nice" side of our subdivision.  Our houses pale in comparison with the size of these houses! She played with the girls for about an hour and the mom gave Elizabeth $10.  Somehow, on the way home, it got stuck in the depths of her coat pocket not to be found...until today! Amazing! We thought for sure that it blew out of her pocket and felt so back we gave her $10.  Not knowing this, Grandpa also gave her $10 and now she has the original $10 as it came out of her pocket as she was searching for her gloves this morning.  There seems to be a hole in the lining and it got stuck somewhere deep.

Today, I also went to the bank to cash a check as Grandma likes us to do our own Christmas shopping.  I was going to take $60 in cash and could have sworn that's what I wrote on the deposit slip. Somehow, the teller misread it and gave me $90.  I was confused and stepped back, but asked her to make sure she was giving me the right amount of change.  I was right and I'm not exactly sure how they would have discovered a $30 error.  Hoping the good karma comes back to help me sometime soon.

Cute story...Elizabeth, Caryn and Alex attend Sunday School every week. We usually hop along and hang with Benjamin.  Last week, we walked through Kmart and looked at toys and Christmas stuff.  As we found lots of toys and Benjamin held all of them, he kept saying, "Me want these!"  I told him that Santa was always watching and that he'd have to ask Santa for them.  Being the 4 yr old he is, he held tight to the toys and looked up to the sky whispering, "Santa I want these!"

Getting ready for Christmas here.  These are the two pics we sent out this year.
