Another Dinner Story

When Lew and I got to the restaurant last night, we put in our request for a table for four and then sat down in the waiting area.  Our friends had not arrived yet.  There was another couple sitting on a bench, and they graciously squished together so that we could have a seat next to them.

After a few minutes went by, I noticed a lovely lady from our church coming toward us.  She made a beeline to the couple sitting next to us and gave the woman a big hug.  It was obvious they hadn't seen each other for a while.  Then another gal (who turned out to be our church friend's daughter) came up and hugged the woman as well.  Apparently they were friends as children.

Then Lew piped up, "What are we, chopped liver?"

Our church friend looked over, and then she excitedly hugged both of us, too.  I saw her daughter turn to her friend and ask, "Does she even know these people?"

After the Hug Fest, we all shared a really good laugh.

And we agreed that it is indeed a small world.
