I've lived in West Chicago for about eight years. My son is twelve years old, and he has been asking me for an iPod for years. I always have to tell him no. He needs other things, like a winter coat, and iPods are so expensive.
I was scheduled for the last shopping appointment today, but I got very lost on my way there. I had to turn around several times before I finally found the church. I showed up after the store closed, but since I had only one child to shop for, they decided to let me go ahead. As soon as I walked in, there it was on the table: an iPod! For $12! This is what my son has wanted for years!
I was late. I missed the place and missed my appointment...but this was the one thing my son has been asking for. Today, this was about God and I thank Him so much.
