FYI

Columnist Kristi O’Harran wrote about seeing the image of Jesus in the wood grain of an Everett kitchen cabinet on Tuesday. Janet Eaton of Mukilteo is selling a T-shirt on eBay with a heavenly touch. She washed her son’s shirt Christmas week, and he thought she had ruined it.

Then Lucas Eaton, who was home on a college break, exclaimed, “Whoa! Look at this!” An angel, wings spread, had appeared on the back of the fabric.

See it yourself on www.ebay.com by searching for “Christmas angel apparition.”
