Helping Mom at Work

Ella LOVES going to work with me, and although it is rare, there have been times she has had to go to the plant with me at night. She gets really excited to go to "Tyson Chicken" where Mommy is a "chicken plucker" (we can thank Popi for that!!). Typically, I would be back up at work going though an issue with USDA, and she likes the USDA office because there is a window that looks out into the plant. She would befriend an inspector and have them hold her up so she could see the lines out the window! If we weren't in the USDA office, she would convince another manager to take her to the breakroom so that she could get stuff out of the vending machines!! (She is a little con-artist!) Thankfully everyone I worked with was really good sports and would help me entertain her while we figuered everything out. Here is a picture of her in my office trying to talk on the radio!! :-) Mommy's office always had lots of fun stuff, like an easy button, scissors, permanent markers, a dry erase board, and of couse, the radio!!
