This is one of those moments that strengthens my belief in God. Bryan is having a rough night so I suggest we go out for icecream (at 2200 at night no less). After some prodding I get him giddy on the idea and we head for DairyQueen.
Lo' and behlod, after a ten minute drive, the Queen has turned in for the night; they close at 2100. So, undeterred we go to McD's (right next to where we live). We pull through the drive through and before we even get to order the guy says, "Order when you're ready but just to warn you, our milkshakes and ice cream are not available tonight."
So after some mutual crying, Bry suggests we go home. That it's the thought that counts. But I say, 'NO! THIS WILL NOT BE IN VAIN!' PriceChopper is right there, so in we go to get some grocerystore version of icecream. I see DeluxeGrahams and have a spaz attack, tackle them, and get some milk. While looking for icecream for the B-man though, he comes across- /gasp!
MINUTE MAID JUICE BOX!
The other day, Bry and I went looking for them and he was heart broken they weren't there. It really bummed him out really bad. So to see them made his and my night. And just think- it's all because DairyQueen and McDonald's failed us.
I know really it could just be coincidence. But it was a pretty enjoyable coincidence either way, and it warms me in a way that I can't help but feel God's encouragement in it all. Anyways, happy reminescence.

Coincidences are not accidents but signals from the universe which can guide us toward our true destiny.
