The day after Granny and Grampy came to visit us for the Christmas holidays, a stomach virus swept through our house, taking down both girls and myself for 24 hours. Steve, Granny, and Grampy were on the front line, taking care of us with no complaints. And thankfully they are still standing.

Last night Anna felt good enough to don her Sous Chef apparel in order to help Granny clean the brussels sprouts in the salad spinner. (Anna's most favorite job is to clean vegetables in the salad spinner).

And here's Anna and her little buddy, watching Dada leave for work.

And finally, here's Anna, watching her beloved Dada leaving for work when she was just a wee little thing, before her sister came into our world.

Makes my heart get a little melty as I remember my scrumptious Anna at this age.
