Guilty as charged....but repentant

Paula and I and a handful of friends and relatives traveled to Turks and Caicos recently, and had a great time kiteboarding (including in the moonlight) as well as swimming in the ocean and being lazy on the days when the wind didn't cooperate.  We stayed at a very nice Air BnB guest house at the home of a really cool British couple.
Their two dogs, Daisy and Hunter quickly got to know us and always greeted us when we got back to the house.
On the last day, my brother's wife couldn't find one of her sandals, despite looking everywhere and asking everyone.
She wondered if one of our canine buddies might have carried it off, and asked them, showing them the other sandal.  Daisy seemed especially reluctant to discuss the matter.

Amy had pretty much given up on the missing footwear, commenting, "Well, they were about five years old anyway."
An hour or so later, while continuing to pack up, my brother found a sandal on the front porch, and figuring it was the one that hadn't been lost off, brought it in.  Lo and behold,
So, all was OK that ended OK, and Amy thanked Daisy for the return of the flip flop.
We hope that your shoes likewise show up, and that repentance is an active principle in your life also.
Dave & Paula

I love doggie stories, especially when restitution is made, which is very rare in my experience.
