Wow, God is so good! I had given up on finding my passport, but hadn't unpacked my bags yet because I had this little glimmer of hope, I guess. I went to some garage sales with my friend Linda (that always cheers me up and she knows it!) and when I got home I had this message from another friend named Linda:
"Barb –
Do you think I am crazy or what? But glove compartment just popped in my head.
If the passports are there it came from God. I promise I wasn’t trying to think of more places to look.
Linda!"
So I thought, "Well, ok. We hadn't looked there." So first I went to Herb's truck and cleaned out his glove compartment (5 years of inspection certs and insurance cards) and then went to my car and was sorting through my collection when I found an envelope with Alisi's name printed on it. I opened it up - and lo and behold - there were the passports along with her birth certificate! I actually got goose bumps! It is a real Miracle story! Praise God and thanks to Linda Brz!!
Now, you might be wondering - what were they doing in the car? About 3 years ago we took Alisi to Michigan with us to see Herb's sister. We had taken those things along in case they were needed if we went across the border into Canada, but they didn't ask for them and we forgot all about them being there! And I don't look in my glove compartment that often to notice what is there. Hmmm just a thought - how many people do you think actually use that for gloves? I know I don't.
Well it is very late and I will have a long week ahead of me so I'd better close, but I wanted to get this story told! I hope you think it is as exciting as I do!!
