My DD leaves for a 3 week trip to China Saturday morning. She's 15 and an upcoming junior in High School. It's a summer bridge camp and she'll pretty much be attending school while there. It's an awesome opportunity and we're so excited for her! There was quite a lot to put together for her passport and visa and such. A ton was lifted off my shoulders when we got all her documentation completed and back. Well, DH sees the passport card that comes with the passport and says we should write the # down on this card. I say well the passport's in the safe go ahead and get it. He says it's not in the safe. What???? It should most definitely be in the safe because where else would I keep something that important!! So I quick call DD who is New Orleans this week on a mission's trip (she's flying home Friday). Got her voicemail. I'm thinking okay, calm down, DD probably put it somewhere so she wouldn't forget it or being a teen took it with her. She better not have taken it with her, but I bet she did is what I'm thinking.
So, I'm fighting the urge to tear apart the house when I know she has to have it. I called DD 2 more times no answer, great, I'm sure glad I got her that cell phone, lol! Now logically I realize they are working on demolitioning things and they are there for a reason, I understood that, but I was near panic.
DD finally calls me back and says I don't have the passport, you were the last one to have it !! What, I had it last and it's not in the safe let me say again
There are 2 things about me, I am either uber organized or I get sidetracked easily. Since the passport was not in the safe that meant it was in my hands when I got sidetracked who knows where doing who knows what! At this point I wanted to :cry: or vomit :yuck: as I freaked out thinking what if I accidentally knocked it in the trash can and the trash went out last week, etc...I was near hysteria, how would I get a new passport and visa by Saturday???
So I send up a quick prayer, Lord, I know I can be real unworthy, but this is one of those times I could use a real helping hand, if not for me, but for Alexis..
Within moments the passport is found On a shelf on the bookcase, who knows why! So PTL my crisis is over and yes the passport is in the safe, lol!!
Thanks for letting me share
