A Christmas Miracle

'Twas the night after Christmas, when J was preparing
For bed at the place where he's watching and caring
for Mishka, a husky, and her friend the cat;
It's a very nice house, I assure you of that!

He called me while getting all ready for bed,
when suddenly realizing something, he said,
that he left all his contact stuff back in his room -
in his house that he won't be at any time soon!

In vain did he look for some saline solution
to moisten the lenses without much dilution,
but all he could find was some old nasal spray,
"Don't use that, I beg you," I started to say,

When then came a memory, smack in my head!
A vision, "The bottle!" I happily said,
"You have what you need in your jeep, look and see,
the cup holder has it, just take it from me!"

-------------------------

On Christmas Eve, I remembered seeing a random travel bottle of contact solution in the cup holder of J's jeep. "That's odd," I thought, "he must've just bought some from the store because he doesn't usually keep it in there." There was a case, too, on the passenger seat, so I threw it into the cup holder next to the bottle.

I totally forgot about it, even as I was helping J think of where to look for contact solution and a case in the place he's house sitting/pet sitting at this week. It wasn't until he mentioned looking for some shot glasses or something to put them in that I remembered - he had what he needed right in his jeep! He had NO CLUE how it got there, hadn't even noticed it at all! He was dubious when I told him to go check in his car, and incredulous when he found it all just as I said!

I went and looked into my purse, and, lo and behold, my contact solution was missing! It must've fallen out of my purse - along with my spare case that I keep there, too - right into the cup holder! I have no clue how they both "just randomly" fell out, and ONLY the two objects that J needed! Now THAT shows me that there are angels watching over us and that God has even the minutest details under control.

It also shows me that J and I make a very good team - I'm good at remembering details and he's good at looking forward to the end goal.

Happy Birthday, Jesus! Thanks for Christmas surprises :)
