For the Love of a hat ... part II

If you've followed our journey, E1 lost his favorite hat. After some searching, it was recovered, much to everyone's joy.

Unfortunately, it was only about 1 week after recovery that disaster struck. On the Sunday after we recovered the hat, E2 wore the hat to church. Mama brought E2 to Sunday School class, while Papa brought the two youngin's into the church. We had our typical trip to our favorite coffee shop after Mass. Finally, in the afternoon, E2 had a birthday party at a local "fun center".

It wasn't until Monday that we discovered the hat was missing again. Did he have it at church? Yes. No. I don't remember. Was it at the coffee shop? Don't think so, as it warmed up a bit. How about at the bowling alley? It was cold, but I was spent, not sure I remember the hat on his head.

Called the bowling alley on Thursday, no luck. At church the following week, took a wild chance on if there is a lost and found at his CCD class. Nope. "but you can check it the baskets down the hall..". Basket #1. Lots of nice mittens and gloves we thought about "using". But no hat. Basket #2. still more gloves, my oh my kids lose lots of gloves.

Basket #3. Pushed aside more gloves, more hats. And at there it was. At the very bottom. I look up at J. Her face turns into a fly catcher with her mouth so wide open. NO WAY!!!

I'm telling you... this hat has a purpose. And its not yet fulfilled with E1!

Welcome home!
