My youngest sister, she is four years younger than I am,
called me today to tell me a very unusual story.

     Our oldest sister, Saundra, is a Christian school teacher
and has been for about 35 years or more.  She currently runs a one
room school out of her home with about 15 students.

     Saundra, as many of you have heard on echurch before, has a
problem.  She loses, or perhaps a better way of stating it is that
she misplaces, her false teeth.  She does this all the time.  We
have conducted many emergency prayer meetings for my sister over
the years due to her misplacement of her teeth.

     So, Ruth, my youngest sister, goes over this week one day to
volunteer, as she does a couple of times a week, in the school.
It is just a few minutes before children are to begin arriving.
Saundra is crying.  Ruth quickly learns that our oldest sister has
once again lost her teeth.  Jere, my brother in law, was awakened
by my sister at 4 o'clock that morning, hysterical about the loss
of her teeth.  So, poor Jere, has been hunting with her all over
the house since early morning for the teeth.  It is now 8 o'clock
and children are walking in the door.  My sister Saundra is now in
a panic.  Ruth pushes her, almost, into the classroom to begin the
pledges to the American flag and the Christian flag and the pledge
to the Bible.  Ruth runs back and begins looking for the teeth.
As she is frantically hunting, she prays, "Oh, Lord.  Just let
them drop from the sky and put them where we can find them."

     Unable to locate the lost teeth, Ruth turns and begins
walking down the hall toward the remodeled garage which now serves
as a one room school house.  As she walks by their spare bedroom,
she glances in.  In the middle of the floor, with nothing around
it in every direction, lay Saundra's teeth.  Ruth snatches them
up, stuffs them into her back pocket, and runs out to the
classroom where she surreptitiously gives them to my sister.  The
day is saved.

     Later, my brother in law reported that there was no way
those teeth were in the spare bedroom because he personally, the
night before, ran the vacuum sweeper in that room and he would
have seen them, of course, so guess who put my sister's teeth
where they could be found?  Oh, by the way, my sister would never
lay her false teeth in the middle of any room.  You wouldn't
believe some of the places they have been found over the years
either.
