Dear Friend

Dear Friend~

I want to thank you for stopping by today with your son, during my daughter's nap time. I'm so glad you were able to come pick up the thing you were borrowing from me, to save me a trip! Did you notice that when I opened the door, I welcomed you with a whispered "hello"? You did? Great! So you knew my daughter was sleeping. And remember how we when we spoke on the phone, I told you how she'd been sick with a cold for almost a week? Yes! The same cold your son had, so you remembered how miserable they can be and how important their rest is. I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you letting your son run around my house screaming and chasing the dog for the few brief minutes you were here. My daughter is wide awake now, miserable and unable to fall back asleep, despite my rocking efforts.

Your Friend,
ME
