Underfoot

Meet my cooking buddies!  These days, at the first scent of food in our kitchen, I have eager helpers who like to stand VERY CLOSE to me, grab ingredients out of refrigerators and pantries, and stand up on stools to help me cook.  Grace is getting very good at pouring measured amounts of ingredients into dishes, but Josh is more interested in putting his entire bottle IN the milk measuring bowl to see if it fits (floats?), and touching the stove elements to tell me that they're HOT.  (After one minor fingertip burn we now have the rule that stools must be more than an arm's-length from the stove).   

Such sweet faces.  Can you believe I tell them to, "Go play!"?
