The Great Missing Wallet Mystery

It's Tuesday night. April has had a long, long day with the kids. She is dying to get out of the house and be alone. She finally makes the great escape to one of her favorite places in the world...Walmart. One can only imagine how bad her day must have been for her to choose to go to the darkest abyss the world has ever known. Still, it is nice to get away. She does some shopping and then leaves. At home, she unloads the car and realizes that her wallet is missing!!! [Dramatic music plays.] Where has it gone? Who has it and what are they going to do next? Abram orders her back to Walmart to look for the wallet. With no success, April returns home. Abram decides to go look himself. What is he thinking? It's Walmart! It would be easier finding a needle in a haystack! Still no luck. April calls her financial institutions to report her lost credit cards. She finds out that no one has used her cards. There is a glimmer of hope.
It's now 9:00 a.m. Wednesday. The phone rings. It is Wells Fargo. The banker is calling to report that another Wells Fargo customer has found the wallet and will drop it off at the nearest branch. April retrieves the wallet. Nothing is missing! Turns out the banker is a member of the church and from April's conversation with her it sounds as if the anonymous lady who found the wallet is too. What a miracle! Mystery solved.
