Our Kitchen "Staff"

It seems that as the demands on our kitchen increase, so does our kitchen staff.

This picture was taken a few weeks before Jonathan was born in September of 2008.

For a while, Emahry stood alone on the helper's chair. She watched, mixed, stirred, rolled, and tasted.

Now, a new helper has emerged and is eager to display his ability to mimic Daddy, Mama, and big sister in the kitchen.

Now, their two small bodies share the helpers' chair. Four bright eyes watch with delight and wonder. Four small hands set to work: mixing, stirring, rolling. Two eager mouths wait, not so patiently, for a taste.

Someday, maybe we'll get a set of barstools for our helpers, but for now we'll enjoy small feet standing tiptoed on a chair, arms stretching to reach, minds wanting to learn, hearts eager to help.

Be sure to keep an eye out for an upcoming giveaway for the kitchen. What will we be giving away? Well, here are a couple of hints. It needs to be plugged in. Our family uses it almost every day. Any guesses?

Having helpers in the kitchen Works for Me (so does the item in our upcoming giveaway).
