Everyday should be "Assistant Appreciation Day".

Amanda DiStefano...I am so very glad you're a part of our team! You, our trustworthy Administrative Assistant, receive my gratitude today. You've taken on some things that frankly, I'm just not great at...the paperwork. And that helps me become a better buyer's specialist for our group. Just wanted to give you a shout-out, because you do things with a smile and you even put smiley faces on your task list post-it notes, which always state triumphantly, "DONE :)"

You = AWESOME.
