Was I super proud of myself for cutting up the two egg whites from Annie’s rejected hard-boiled eggs from lunch and hiding them in her dinner spaghetti while she was in her late therapy session? Yes, yes I was. Was I a little bummed when I realized that I had only added 34 calories and 8 grams of protein to her meal? Yes, yes I was.
At least she ate it all up, which is quite rare with the mediocre cuisine served in the Shirley Ryan cafeteria. Does this smile overcome a lot of my frustration on the eating front? Yes, yes it does.
Keep up the good work! Love you!
Emily, you’re the best. That second pic is just absolutely adorable, love her smile! Keep getting better Annie!
