I can't even imagine what you were thinking. I know I would have gotten on my knees and prayed like the dickens.

After I posted that thank you, I remembered you and several others. There are so many good people here. God bless you. You have given me the encouragement I've needed to speak my truth.

yea...
i was quite worried last year, because i have lost my son in the middle of the crowd downtown at Xmas Eve...i was really worried, not about him not knowing the town (he knows our town well), but i was worried about bad ppl who could cross his road like pedophiles etc...he eventually came back after one hour...

Thank God the baby was safely returned to you & your wife! Good post & good lessons for all of us to keep in mind - be careful of what you pray for...for you WILL get it. Gotta be specific when we pray (found out about this the hard way). Have a blessed & wonderful holiday. With many thanks for your posts & your great comments...

That was a terrible fright. She tried to get in touch with the couple who were so kind, but we never heard from them again.

Thank you. It is much easier to take responsibility than to avoid it.

If one is feeling ungrateful, that is certainly one way to restore a thankful heart.

my comment is on your words "we were pregnant". As resonsibility and growth, that is really great.

Do you think something must be taken to create gratitude? There are some inccredibly giving people who have things taken away
