The Miracle!!!


Backing up...last summer we went to Lake Powell.  It was a fun trip.  Too bad we didn't have a digital camera back then and I have no photos I can show.  Anyway by the end of the week we were sick of our 115 degree tent and packed up rather quickly.  After that trip S never saw her special (pronounced "pecial") pillow again.  I figured I had put it on top of the car during a "I'm-going-to-barf-stop" and it was probably on the road somewhere between here and Arizona.  I have left more to-go boxes on top of my car just to see them fly off the first corner I round than I would like to admit.  So it was a good theory that I might have done that.  Poor S she was so sad.  It was a silky pink pillow that she would rub between her fingers at night to fall asleep.  I looked everywhere to find another one, but couldn't.  I even tried to sew one for her. but the fabric wasn't right.  It's been 9 months and she still talks about her "pecial-pillow."  So on Sunday we opened the tent for the first time since that trip and there was special pillow!!!!!  I swear if I had even thought it could have been in there I would have opened it the day we got home!  It was such a miracle.  She was so happy.  Now Seb knows why he could barely get the tent to fit inside it's bag.  Here is a picture of S loving "pecial pillow."

Wow it's like a special treasure. I think all I'll find in my tent is dead spiders.
