[/caption]Thursday I went to Michael's to look into getting a few photos framed for Ben. Photos he has chosen of Ellie. Well I had forgotten how loooong it takes to get something framed at Michael's and realized I was running late to pick Ben up from the bus stop. As I raced to get to the bus stop, I was in the left hand turn lane when the car in the front and right side of me started to pull into my lane. I immediately thought "We are going to crash!!!" and started to scream like my mom. From my vantage point there was no where for my car to go, as the snow was piled high on the other side of the car. Somehow, magically, we did not crash. And I again I got a cardiovascular workout without stepping foot in the Y.
Later, I did step foot in the Y to attend my favorite Zumba/Hip Hop Fit class. Lotta had not been feeling well, so I was reluctant to go and leave her without her food source for very long. We were on the last song before cool down, when I suddenly had the urge to leave. I thought, logically, I could stay for 5 more minutes, but the urge was just too strong. Ari, my magnificent instructor and friend, wanted to give me a check for the children's hospital. I told her that I would get the check from her after class on Sunday. Right as I walked out the front door of the Y, I ran into Anne, Ellie's night nurse in the PICU. I never knew she even belonged to the Y as I had never ever run into her before. We stood outside the Y in the freezing cold and talked about Ellie for about 10 minutes. Piming is what we call that--perfect timing.
I asked Ben recently if he might want to go sell coupons at the Boston Store to help Make-A-Wish. We talked about how Ellie had a wish granted to go to Sesame Street. Ben immediately said, "Ellie had another wish granted. She got to go fly with the fairies (angels)."
