What are the chances?

About a week ago I noticed a small dog on a leash, sitting at the feet of a woman who had come to watch her husband play baseball.  I felt drawn to reach for my camera and quickly snap a few photos of this cute little lap dog.  I was paying so much attention to the puppy that I neglected imprinting on my mind the face of the dog’s owner.  I printed the pictures and kept them with me when I went to the ballpark.  Over the next few days I looked for the woman with the dog, to no avail.

Yesterday one of the baseball players approached me.  He was telling me about a specific breed of dog and mentioned that there was one at the park.  He asked if I had my camera if I would take a photo of the dog for him.  I walked with him to an area where only two spectators were seated.  You guessed it – the elusive dog and its owner.  I laughed.  I told him I have pictures of that dog with me.  I handed him the photos I had in my purse, both of us laughing about the coincidence of it.  He kept one for himself and turned over the others to the dog owner.

I love how the Universe plays with us.  Out of the blue, a man approaches me because he wants a photograph of a specific thing – a little dog – and I just happened to have it in my purse. Whoa!
