B
The little, black-haired boy was waiting for us on the other side of the world. Ever since our adoption agency had matched us, I'd been crazily completing all the necessary paperwork. We knew we faced months of waiting before we could hold our new son in our arms, and he'd waited long enough already.
I made it a personal goal to never delay the process. If we had documents to get notarized( 公证 ), we would do them on the very day we were told. On one late afternoon in June, I rushed from our Secretary of State's office toward the closest FedEx office. I had a document to send overnight.
I thought I knew where the FedEx office was. I drove there, only to find that the office was no longer located where I remembered it. I became very disappointed. I didn't bring my smart phone in my pockets. I had no way of finding the correct location. I started driving toward home.
Suddenly, at a stoplight, an oversized truck drove in front of my car. I became angry but my anger turned to shock when I saw the emblem(标记). It was a FedEx truck. I changed lanes quickly and followed closely behind the truck. What were the chances that the truck would lead me straight to the FedEx office I was seeking?
It turned out that the chances were good. Less than five minutes later, I saw a FedEx sign, and the truck made a turn into the parking lot. Our documents went out that night. Three months later, we flew halfway around the world to meet our son for the first time. We have been with him every day since.
Miracles are always around us if we are open to them. Sometimes, it's a smile at the right time or a kind word. And every now and then, it's even a big truck that cuts us off at the stoplight.
