When a friend needs help you drop what you are doing. You drop the gardening. You drop the lawnmower. You drop the small animal projects. You drop cleaning.
If a friend is in distress about their child. Whether it is a cold or a life-threatening disease, you do what you can for them.
I am not a kid person. Never have been. But I will help my friends when they need it. I don't expect thank yous. I expect favors in return. Not because it is a tit-for-tat thing, but because that is what friends do.
So I am going back to St. Louis for the rest of the week to help out. I will get back to blogging and the farm when I feel my friends and their kids are back in a good place.
My sunflowers have bloomed. The watermelons and tomatoes are growing.
This friend says call in your favors. I look forward to helping out. Oh, and that thing you don't expect me to say.. I won't out of respect.
