They just love being at the table with him. Although I'm not sure how much he's at the table! However, it speaks love to them!~ Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07869850581466200020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-740979368359559618.post-36820506077641540742010-12-09T19:17:24.152-05:002010-12-09T19:17:24.152-05:00When you think they are old enough, we used to pla...When you think they are old enough, we used to play games at the table like "I Spy". They were talking type games that held the kids' attention, got us through the meal, and was a gateway for the habit that dinner was a time to talk and share. :) <br />We made up our own like "Cartoon Books" where we made up titles based on characteristics of cartoon characters or "Who am I?" guessing games. Mostly, yeah, try to enjoy the chaos and remember a day is coming when you will indeed get a hot meal!! :) <br />Love ya!<br />KarenKaren Twomblyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00055608626935002977noreply@blogger.com
