What Are The Chances?

I can hardly believe it. Our three years in Michigan are almost over. It truely feels like it has just started. I will miss Michigan, the people here have been so great. I love the green and the squirrels but I do look forward to more sunshine. It is pretty cloudy in Michigan
I took Eric to the airport on Aug 19th. He began his LLM classes the very next day. He says Miami is HUGE. I am quite nervous about living there. I am deffinately a small town girl.
One of Jennifer's leaders at camp has a son in-law who is working on his LLM in tax at the University of Miami. He e-mailed us about a month ago introducing himself and we e-mailed back and forth for a while. His wife had offered some great advice on safe places to live and we were so thankful for the help. We didn't have any contact with them for a couple weeks because I was waiting for Eric to get to Florida so he could look at houses.
Eric's first day of school was pretty nerve racking for him. Miami does a lot of stuff different including parking at the University. Eric, being the out going guy he is thought he would start asking people how to park, without getting a ticket. The first person he asked was just as new and frazzled as Eric but the second man invited him to pull around and he would help him. The first words out of the strangers mouth was he could tell Eric was a fellow member of the Church. How he could tell that we still don't know but, get this, it ended up being the same man we had been e-mailing back and forth with--what are the chances. Eric felt pretty good and made an instant friend. Eric has had constant contact with this man since he got to Miami and now this wonderful family has invited him to stay with them while Eric works to find a home for us. I feel so blessed that Eric and this man were at the right place at the right time.
I look forward to Sept 1st when Eric flies back to Michigan to move us all to Florida and I can meet this family.
