You have got to be kidding ME!!!!

Kira and I stayed home from church today. Kira had a little cold that we didn't want to give all the kids and I am trying to get over this thing that attacked me last weekend. I hopefully am on the end of it. Anyways, Arik and Brookelyn went to church. They walk in the door after church and Arik says, "I am disappointed with the Saints in Soda Springs." "What happened," I asked. I look at Brookelyn and she looks like she has been crying. "Someone stole Brookelyn's backpack." In the backpack was her coloring pencils (some really nice twist ones) and her notebook where she draws all her pictures. Arik had hung it up where you hang coats after Sacrament (just like we have done every Sunday for the past two years). After church when they went to get it, it was gone. They searched the whole church. After about 30 minutes, Arik says, "Maybe someone really needed it and took it but come on!" I told Brookelyn that since it wasn't her fault that they are missing we will get her new ones. Funny thought, this morning when she put her backpack on to go to church I thought, "At least I don't need to buy her a backpack for school in the fall." Little did I know!!

Hopefully someone just took it home by mistake and will return it next week. We've had confusion in the past when our friends have had identical toys and things as our girls. I know this sounds scarey but my kid has even come home in the wrong underpants because they were playing dress up and their friend had the same princess panties as they had at home and somehow we came home wearing different underwear.

It is a shame that it was taken. It had me thinking of times when things of ours were taken at church. The really sad part in the church is that we have to have lockers in the temple for this reason too! I hope it shows up next week like Tabitha.

ohhh... that is so sad! Maybe some little squirt grabbed it by accident and took it home, instead of their bag. Check back next week! Still... that is super sad. :(
