Lucky Duck.



I am Human. I make the dumbest mistakes sometimes. Today I was just one plain Lucky Duck.

While I was busy running errands, mind of course preoccupied with the things I needed to get done. I was finishing up at the good old Walmart putting my bags away getting Greyson in and such. Put my cart away already thinking of my next stop and what I had to get. Pull in the parking lot of the next store which luckily was not that far away. Get out, Open door, get the carseat....Purse, wait....NO PURSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sheer PANICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Looking, looking all around my car, thinking CRAP!!!!!! Oh NO....saying NO, NO, NO out loud!! I knew then that I had left it in the freaking CART! In of all places the WALMART PARKING LOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELP....

Flying back into my car, throwing it in reverse speeding away. Praying just praying, shaking..couldn't get there fast enough. I don't know if any of you have lost your purse or credit card but it is seriously one of the worst feelings ever. Screeching in the parking lot 10 minutes if that, checking the cart I just left. Of course, NO PURSE!!! Finding a parking spot as fast as I could, get Greyson out, literally running as fast as I could back into the store.


There standing in front of the greeter is a lady holding my purse.


I run up behind her and just hug her. So grateful. I have had my purse stolen before and it is just an absolute NIGHTMARE!


Getting hold of my emotions, I was in tears thanking her so much for her honesty and goodness. I wanted to give her some sort of reward and she refused. She just smiled and was a little teary too, she could see how much her honesty meant to me. I thanked her over and over she then told me that she did the very same thing not too long ago. How blessed and watched out for I was today.

Today restored my faith back in the honesty and good in people. I am so grateful!
