Friend of a long, long time

Other than dropping off and picking up my son from school, I didn't leave my house today. So today's hero came to me!
I have known this gal since we were babies, so she knows the way to my heart better than most. Today she came and held my baby while he slept and I madly cleaned. Then when he woke up the two of us aided by my oldest traded off baby and toddler care and did a quick pick-up of stuff on the floor. Then she swept my whole house from top to bottom. After all that I, of course, fed her dinner!
There really are not words for how much it means to me to be able to walk across my floor without a collection of debris getting stuck to the bottom of my feet. It is a small thing in the grand scheme. But it means that my house feels like home again. Thank you, my friend!
