No pictures but I sure am proud of my little chef

yesterday was an extremely busy day...Norah Grace had walkathon, she walked/jogged 10miles with her volleyball teammates.  After that was complete she came home to check the pork butt she was cooking for the neighbor, prepped 2 chickens, made pasta, made fresh pesto, made fresh bread and a giant cobbler.  

Her commitment to help a family in need makes me proud. All I’ve ever wanted is for Norah Grace to recognize the importance of helping others.   She was exhausted, but still found the energy to make some dinner for her grandparents.  

Eggheads, I know I am biased, but she’s a great kid.   She recognizes how fortunate we are and how doing something small for someone like providing a meal or some awesome socks can make all the difference in the world to someone in need.   

What a blessing to be able to call her my daughter.

@Holepuncher must have been mom’s tree!! 

@ilooklikeelvis I’m blessed beyond belief, living wife and daughter. God has been gracious to a wretch like me.

That she has it together is a given.  She continues to demonstrate a maturity well beyond her years. 

I wish I had half of her energy.  Congrats Chef Norah Grace.

Attagirl Norah Grace.

Great leaders lead by example.  She is a shining star and many will follow her light.

Good on ya Ryan - you are rightfully proud of her and her future is certainly wide open.

Awesome story.  Nice work.

Wow!  I can't believe she has time for a volleyball team with all the cooking she does!

You are doing a great job with her.  In an age when there seems to be so many people who mostly care about the number of YouTube or Instagram subscribers they have, or getting clicks to their videos, you've managed to raise a young lady who mostly cares about other people.  That my friend is really something you don't see every day!

Bless her heart

If she can continue this trend as she matures it'll serve her well.

@NPHuskerFL, I pray everyday that her desire will be to serve others. That’s the kind of life that’s worth living.

She’s going to grow up to be the Jose Andres of Ohio!
