Plans fail, blessings come

My husband had a conference this last week, Tuesday through Wednesday. They told him he could bring his family to stay over in the hotel. We were so excited to go. The hotel had a fun swimming pool, and my kids love to swim. Monday afternoon my husband got a phone call saying they changed hotels. The new hotel didn't have a swimming pool. We were really sad about that, especially the kids. So we decided to stay home for the night and my husband would go to class. Then we would drive up the next day for his meetings and the kids and I could spend the day with cousins. We decided to take the kids swimming Tuesday afternoon before my husband had to go to class to make it up to them. It was a blast! Everything worked out wonderfully. But the real blessing came when we realized this... In my husbands schooling he can only miss one class time per class and still get an A. He has had straight A's all through this graduate program and this is his last class. (Yeah!) Our oldest son has his preschool graduation on a Tuesday this month. So now because he was able to go to class instead of going up to stay in a hotel he can miss class and attend our son's graduation and still get his A. What a blessing for our family! Sometimes when things don't work out it is for a reason, we just need to see what that reason or blessing is.
