Timing is everything.

This gift card was given to me at my 60th birthday party at the NCCIL, 
a party I threw for a devoted and vibrant circle of friends.

It has ridden around in my billfold now for 4+ years.

Today I used it to order an assortment 
of stain glass kaleidoscope coloring books for Caleb. 

Coco gave us our first one last year, and coloring in them has been 
one of Caleb's favorite artsy things we do together. 

Now who could have imagined, at that party 4+ years ago,
that this is how I would use the gift card?

And that I'd be enjoying all this unexpected wonderfulness in my life today!

Thank goodness for "curve balls" that surprise us into situations 
we might never have chosen on our own.

There are NO mistakes!
