We had a perfect example of serendipity yesterday thanks to Trish. Co and I stopped at the pharmacy to get a new pinky ball because his was lost in a particularly aggressive game of bounce back (Lee was playing -imagine that.) Colonial didn't have pinky balls! Colby was pretty bummed because he uses his ball against the garage almost every day especially when I am sleeping.
But the serendipity was that we parked next to trish, who was running errands and she happened to have a pinky ball at 139 main, which she had purchased to send to Colby at camp! How weird is that?!
I love the word serendipity, because it sounds just like what it means. It also reminds me of frozen hot chocolate from Serendipity in NYC, which was serendipitously located two blocks from the hospital I had to spend two weeks at when I was 17.
What is serendipitous in your life?
