history: After my 4th child was born, I had friends sign up to bring dinner for us for 2 weeks. I had a c section and was really limited in what I was able to do, so I was very grateful.  I usually hate to ask for help_comma_ so when my friends all surprised me by taking turns bringing us meals for 2 weeks after my 4th child was born I was blown away. I was so relieved to have help. 
current: Wow, 4 children my first is on the way and I'm freaking out. You must have great friends.  
next: That is so exciting, congratulations! We moved 17 hours away from family, so having a great group of friends is really important to us.
