EVERYTIME I GET READY TO COOK I CAN ALWAYS FIND MY TRUSTY ASSISTANTS PULLED UP ON A CHAIR RIGHT NEXT TO ME. USUALLY THEY ARE STANDING EXACTLY WHERE I NEED TO BE, BUT I GET SUCH A KICK OUT OF HOW MUCH THEY WANT TO BE A PART OF HELPING SO I WORK AROUND THEIR TINY BODIES. I HAVE LEARNED TO BE EXTREMELY PATIENT WHILE THEY TAKE 15 MINTUES TO CUT UP ONE TOMATO, OR ACCIDENTALLY DROP A FEW EGGS ON THE FLOOR, OR SNEAK POCKETS FULL OF CHOCOLATE CHIPS WHILE WE BAKE COOKIES, OR SMASH ALL THE CUPCAKE TINS BEFORE WE EVEN HAVE A CHANCE TO PLACE THEM IN THE PAN, OR SCOOP HANDFUL AFTER HANDFUL OF CHEESE UNTIL THERE IS A GIANT MOUNTAIN ON TOP OF THE SCRAMBLED EGGS.
TONIGHT WAS SPAGHETTI NIGHT AND AS YOU WILL SEE THE GIRLS HELPED CUT TOMATOES AND ROLL MEATBALLS.
