Crazy stuff

So my mom, Hope, and I went to a local Christian bookstore the other day. My mom was paying, so I went to put Hope in the car. We waited and waited and finally my mom comes out with the store clerk. I was so confused. Then my mom introduces me to her long lost cousin! They hadn't seen each other in like 45-50 years. This cousin has had NO contact with her family for like 30 years, so no one knew where she was. How crazy is that! She and my mom had dinner the other night and we are getting together with her and one of her kids and grandkids tomorrow.

In other news, my cousin had a baby girl! They named her Faith Elise. Now my grandma has great-grandchilren named Faith, Hope, and Grace- one in each family.

That's wild that your mom found her cousin! What are the odds of that!? I also love the names, Faith, Hope and Grace - very, very neat.
