Careful what you pray for.

This morning Max was on a frantic hunt for his Kung Fu Panda toy that we got at Carls Jr. He was very upset that he couldn't find it. I only had about 1 hour until I needed to get Elese up from her nap so I told him I would help him after I showered. After the third time of him coming in the bathroom asking me to help him find his toy I said a prayer. "Heavenly Father, I have a lot of things I want to get done today, please help us find this toy quickly so that I can get on with my day." The second I turned off the shower I heard Elese crying (1/2 hour before she should have woken up) and I knew exactly where the toy was. Sure enough it was in the kids room sitting on the floor with what I'm sure was a smirk on its face. Thats what I get for praying for selfish reasons I guess. I'm sure Heavenly Father, my dad and my nephew Justen are having a pretty good laugh about their way of answering my prayer. Now I get to try to make a quilt & clean the house with my kids hanging on my legs.
