December 13

I had a secret mission downtown this evening and took Isaac along for the ride. (And to help. I know it looks suspect but he's just stretching in the photo.)

Since it's a Friday night AND since it's the Christmas season, downtown was bustling and I worried that parking would be a challenge. We passed by our destination and then a moment later, a car signaled to exit its parallel parking space just in front of me. So I slipped right in, just like that.

I needed that spot in order to accomplish my mission, so I'm grateful to God that it became available at the precise moment it did. It was a small thing, but a very helpful blessing.
