What are the odds

Wow I haven't been able to write in a while due to moving, computer problems, & the list could go on forever. There is so much to write but I think I'll begin to tell everyone about my day yesterday. It was so cold outside that most sane people were nice & warm in their homes. It was about 19 degrees that felt like 5 degrees when the wind blew. Well I had to pick up my oldest from school & we had to go to the store to pick up a few things. I got the baby & my oldest daughter out of the car & we went into the store got the things that we needed & left. We made it to the car & everyone was buckled in, I was estatic because I was freezing. I turned to the cart to move it out of the way because I was free sailing to get into the car & leave. Guess what? There was something in the cart -the other package of wipes that I didn't pay for. UHHHHH! This is definitely a joke I thought to myself. I thought I am being punk'd or that I was on candid camera or something.
Any other person probably would have done one of these 3 things----
1)left the wipes in the cart & gone home
2)taken the wipes out & left with them without thinking twice about paying
3) taken the wipes home & then when it was time to go back to the store then pay

Well I did 4) took everyone out of the car & went in to pay- ---
Yes as I began to tell my oldest that we had to go back in to pay she was furious telling me that it is just to cold to go back in. I told her that we had no option we were going in to pay for something that we didn't pay for & that is the right thing to do.
With that being said it was cold but my daughter learned a lesson about doing what is right. Hears to going with the flow & making the best of it, also to life lessons that come from situations that arise. Well I will be going to bed soon, I hope everyone has a restful sleep.
