I Was Lost and Now I’m Found


Hallelujah! Found at last and not a moment too soon too!

Our dearest little Dunkin’s very favorite baby had been missing for a couple of weeks till just a couple days ago. My husband and I both searched high and low for the ratty little green mouse she likes to carry around and chirp with happily as she does. I spent time crawling around looking under all kinds of things in all kinds of places more than once too.

For some reason my husband decided to look not only under his dresser once again but up under it this time. And low and behold the little very well loved mousey was resting there where it had undoubtedly been tossed up on a brace like shelf well hidden from view. What possessed him to look there I don’t know. We are all grateful that he did.

It has been wonderful to hear our little Dunkin chirping merrily around the house once again. She is such a joyful little cat and it is especially amusing to watch and hear her playing with her baby.

The universe has a way of providing for us and so often in ways we don’t realize till we look beyond the surface.

Just a couple of weeks ago I was thinking that I needed to plan for some time away from work and give myself the opportunity to rest, sit, read, knit, get with some friends, have time with my husband and do whatever I needed to do in the moment for some quality “me” time. And I did in fact make plans down the road to accomplish just that.

And, then I get sick with this crud that has wiped me out completely and forced me to sit and rest and really do “me” time. I’ve had no choice. I guess I needed this rest time more than I realized and sooner than I anticipated.

It’s often hard for me to know when to say when. This is a good lesson for me to remember.

That wise voice inside knew. I need to learn to hear and heed her call sooner!
