The Kindness of a Little Boost

"I get by with a little help from my friends..."
~ John Lennon and Paul McCartney

The other day, my children wanted to go for pizza, but I was exhausted and had to go to an event later that same evening.  I called my lovely friend, with whom we usually go for pizza, as my children wanted her and her children to come with us.  I asked if she was up for pizza.  Yes, she said.  Then as I explained what my evening looked like, she said, "Oh, we might be too tired..."  She called out to her daughter, "You are too tired to go, right?"  As I laughed, she said, "I am just trying to help you."  I was able to rally and we all met up for an early pizza dinner before I headed out to the other event.  I was in a much better mood after spending time with my lovely friend.
