Ask and Ye Shall Receive

About three weeks ago, Zander lost his glasses. This is an on going problem. He has worn glasses since he was about 20 months old and in that time we have gone through no less than 6 pairs of glasses. Sometimes we've had to replace them for a new prescription or because the hinge gets bent out of shape, but rarely do they get lost long enough to warrant a new pair. Well we were just at that crossroad and were about to fork our another $99. I had cleaned both the boys' and Natalie's bedrooms, searched in the play room, under and inside the couch, in the game closet and everywhere else I thought he would put them. I couldn't find them anywhere. Sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night thinking about where they could be and not be able to get back to sleep...so I guess you could say I have "lost sleep over it."

Well, on Tuesday night I went in the playroom to look for a pair of shorts I thought may be in there and while I was looking around in the midst of all the toys I asked God "where could those glasses be?" I immediately got an overwhelming feeling that I should look behind a pair of mattresses we are storing in the playroom. I would probably not have looked there otherwise, but for some reason I was compelled to look and sure enough they were right behind the mattresses. It was so cool...it was like God actually told me where to find them.
