**The Egg Pickup That Came at Exactly the Right Time**
Itâs funny how things happen sometimesâhow one small change in your normal routine can end up making all the difference.
I have a customer, Andrew , who gets a few dozen eggs from me every week. I normally leave them waiting for him in the farmstand, but Thursday morning I had to be at an eye appointment an hour and a half away at 8:00 a.m. With everything going on, I forgot to put his eggs out.
I messaged him and told him I would leave them near the house instead.
That same morning, Angela Spotts took the dogs out for a walk, and everything seemed completely normal. They came back inside, and then suddenly she heard Willow screaming.
It was a sound she had never heard come from a dog before.
Angela immediately jumped into action. She found Willow trying to drag herself across the floor, completely unable to use her back legs.
She ran to move the SUV as close to the house as possible. She was preparing to somehow get an 80-pound husky into the back of it by herself. Being the super dog mom she is, she would have found a wayâbut thereâs a pretty good chance both she and Willow would have been injured in the process.
Just as Angela went to get the vehicle, Andrew pulled up to get his eggs.
He arrived at the exact place he normally wouldnât have been, to pick up eggs that I had never forgotten to leave in the farmstand before.
Without hesitation or question, Andrew ran into the house with Angela. Together, they got Willow safely into the SUV and headed to the veterinarian immediately.
Today, Willow is trying to take steps.
With spinal injuries, timing is everything. Even a short delay could have changed her outcome completely. Somehow, everything aligned exactly when it needed toâthe forgotten eggs, the changed pickup location and him arriving at that precise moment.
Sometimes the things that feel like mistakes may actually be putting someone exactly where they need to be.
We still have a long road ahead of us, but seeing Willow trying to take those steps today has given us so much hope. We are incredibly thankful for Andrew Clark , for his perfect timing and for the fact that he didnât hesitate for even a second.
Has anything like this ever happened to youâwhere a strange coincidence or change of plans ended up happening at exactly the right time? I would love to hear your story.
