My son came home yesterday completely devastated.  He had left his IPOD on the school bus and just knew he would never see it again.  It hurt him even more because he had worked making clay pens and snakes and selling them, and saved every penny to buy it with, and $250 is ALOT of money for a child to make on his own.  I was proud and he was of himself also.

Last night as he was crying himself to sleep, I told him that he had to have faith sometimes in things he couldn't see or understand, and that there were still some really good and honest people in the world and they could find it and return it to him.  I reminded him of how when he was barely 7 he found a wallet filled with $300 at our local Value City and had returned it.  The employee who had lost it, had just cashed her check and it was every penny she had to her name, and she had given him a $20 reward for his honest in returning it.    I told him to talk to God about it when he said his prayers, to keep faith in people and that I would even put in a "special request" in my God Box, which I have come to believe is magical in itself.

He woke up this am, still down and upset.  I again reminded him to have faith in God and good in people and he said he would.  I told him I delivered his message via the God Box also and everything would be fine.  I also put in my request to HP for my son, as I don't want him to loose faith in people this young.

When he got on the bus this am, the bus driver handed him his IPOD.  I don't know the whole story as he just sent me a text that said "I GOT IT", but I really do know the whole story.........we all do..........It's all about faith and all about trusting in His will for us........

Thank you God for this good life.....and a wonderful son
I am truly blessed......
