Unexpected Knock


Friday night, the third night of Rosh Hashana , The Rubin family didn't seem to be in a rush to make kiddush. Usually after Rabbi Rubin and his sons come home from Shul they make kiddush within ten minutes. However since no one in the family was hungry the family was taking their time. The older girls were in the kitchen doing more talking then getting ready. The younger kids were in the living room reading Mishpacha Junior and playing.
Rabbi Rubin and his wife were in the dining room about to call everyone to the table, when they suddenly heard a knock at the front door. Mrs. Rubin went to answer the door and saw an unexpected guest who needed a meal.
"Come in, come in! Perfect timing, come, were just about to start!"
As Gila Rubin walked in to the dining room she whispered to her mother,
"HP, we didn't start when we usually do, otherwise we would be by dessert!"

WOW, that really is hashgacha pratis, especially on Rosh Hashana too. Next time you can send your guest to us- we probably also will just be starting.:)
