A Dry Party

Today is Abigail's birthday and this afternoon we had her birthday party. Because the forecast was actually promising and there were a dozen kids with cake and juice and snacks I planned the whole party to be outside. Unfortunately, about ten minutes before the party it started raining- there was a big raincloud above us and no wind to move it. I said a fervent prayer- and I found out that Drew did too and my Mom (who had pouring rain at her house only a few miles away)- and that prayer was answered. It was dry for the party. The winds did not pick up, the cloud did not move, but it stopped raining over our house for those two hours, and that is a blessing and an answer from on high.
