[Dailydrool] Hollyberry's Health Tips

[Margaret Honnold]

As many of you know, I work as a nursing health educator for our local health 
department. I work with young mothers and little kids helping them to understand 
healthy eating, exercise, rest and etc.  Tomorrow one of our local schools 
health class is holding a health fair. In honor of Hollyberry and Noah, who had 
county-wide fame due to all their pictures in my office and around the clinic, I 
have made a poster teaching everything that I want to stress...my clerk (who is 
the computer whiz) took pictures of Hollyberry and Noah and we made a 6' 
poster...
Some of what they teach....
              family meals = Noah on the diningroom table
              drink 6-8 glasses of water = Hollyberry slurping from her water 
pan
              get lots of exercise = Hollyberry playing in the snow
              sleep 8 hours per night = Hollyberry curled up in my bed
              reduce stress, hang out with friends = Hollyberry and Noah curled 
up together
              increase your Vitamin D levels = Hollyberry curled up asleep in 
the sun
I got a teary kick out of completing this project, it will make the kids smile 
and I hope remember a few of the principles we are trying to help them learn and 
it honors the memory of my two percious Bassets...teary just typing this...time 
does help but never removes.

Snooters, Maggie
Hollyberry ATB and Noah ATB (mom we loved having our pictures taken and we are 
glad that you have gotten them out again)
Thelma Lou - hey, I am photogenic too...I could be the sausage exhibit
Huckleberry - mom, you have put 18# on me since I came to live with you...take 
your own advice
Fergus - what??????????? filling for the box springs is not part of a healthy 
diet?
