Bitachon Story of Salvation at Hotel

Mrs.` Schwartz, a teacher in Lakewood, said her school made a Shabbaton in a hotel. It was for the mothers and teachers. When they signed up, whoever had a baby told them they were bringing a baby and they would arrange for them to be on the second floor because there were a lot of steps and they couldn’t use the elevator on Shabbos. When it came the week of the Shabbaton, she realized that she forgot to tell them that she has a newborn baby. She was wondering if she should call them and tell them. She didn’t think it would be proper hishtadlus because then they would have to start moving people around. She decided to go with bitachon that they would put her on the second floor without calling them. When she got there, she got the second floor! She had told her husband that she forgot to tell them, and he gasped, ‘oy! What’s going to be? There’s no way you’re getting it because everyone has babies in Lakewood.’ She said, ‘that’s if you go with tevah, but if you go with bitachon, it’s a different set of laws!’
