The Kindness of Making It Easy to Ask

"It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help."
~ Epicurus

Ah, my steadfast friend...  I recently needed help getting my children to an evening activity as I had a meeting at the same time.  I must admit that I did not hesitate to call my steadfast friend.  She immediately agreed to take my children to their activity and made me feel that it was not a bother.  Along the way, she texted me to let me know that they were getting a snack and then that she had dropped them off.  I found out later that the "snack" was actually a meal at a restaurant.  When I called my friend to thank her, she said, "It was not a big deal."  It was to me.
