The Kindness of a Delayed Call

"I appreciate anything thoughtful."
~ Hilary Rhoda

My daughter was going to her best friend's house recently.  Her friend's mother, one of my dearest mom friends, asked me if I would mind picking up food she had ordered from our local pizzeria.  No problem -- it was on my way.  After I delivered the food and my daughter, I was driving a few miles away from our neighborhood to run errands.  My friend called me about 20 minutes after I had left her house to tell me that the pizzeria had left out part of her order.  I told her if I was closer I would go to get it.  "I know my people," she said, "That's why I didn't call you right away."
