Also, it is so true in our house that it took having a second born before we began really doing "family" things ... like using the dining room table for meals. :)Hyacynthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08838590548747956315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900345437316119604.post-52345450282682936172011-09-02T06:55:23.773-05:002011-09-02T06:55:23.773-05:00SO CUTE!

I have some friends who don't, but I just think it's a valuable part of the day...even when the conversation IS mind numbing!Ginny Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579981666900022792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900345437316119604.post-77114459452999436962011-09-01T21:03:54.791-05:002011-09-01T21:03:54.791-05:00With my husband in medical school, and our life al...With my husband in medical school, and our life all levels of crazy, we absolutely cherish meal times--dinner, that is. It is wonderful to sit down and really engage with each other. A reminder of family togetherness.<br /><br />Ahh and the singing and dancing? A perfect way to make meal times more exciting. <br /><br />P.S I LOVE that picture.amber_mtmchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17871256362646081536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900345437316119604.post-8407109925546885012011-09-01T20:59:31.897-05:002011-09-01T20:59:31.897-05:00The nice thing about this is that if you start whe...The nice thing about this is that if you start when they are young, they do it willingly when their peers don't want to. We make dinners together a standard rule. We might have pancakes, or eggs, or a great dinner (like Taco Casserole) or we might keep it simple, but when we do it together everyone benefits.Pitterle Postingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02944899733768126383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900345437316119604.post-65767496015212251722011-09-01T19:06:04.167-05:002011-09-01T19:06:04.167-05:00We're not as good as we should be about consis...We're not as good as we should be about consistently eating together at the table, but every time we do, I feel so GOOD about it. There's something so cathartic, yes, in just being there with one another, whether you're eating in silence or being serenaded :)Lenaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14128174350293301827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900345437316119604.post-7978744380929812782011-09-01T17:35:28.450-05:002011-09-01T17:35:28.450-05:00....also, I love it....dinner and a show!....also, I love it....dinner and a show!Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03485338098212307793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3900345437316119604.post-46707144323260835282011-09-01T17:34:25.549-05:002011-09-01T17:34:25.549-05:00Family dinner is so important.

One of their English teachers has them discuss their family's dinner habits and write a paper on what they gain ( or miss out on) from their family's habit. My daughter was one of three in a class of 24 whose family ate together.<br /><br />Keep it up. You will find out so much great stuff even if sometimes he gets tired of answering your questions!Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03485338098212307793noreply@blogger.com
