My friend Karen shared a link with me regarding the family dinner table and it is a great link to pass along. As the article states, the family table is lost in today's society. The concept of sitting down together as a family and spending time talking is so important for the dynamics of the family. It is a time to deepen the relationship you as a family share. In my family, we play cards while eating. Everyone dishes up their plate and then we sit down and play a game of Euchre. The kids are good enough at it now that we can generally have some discussion about the daily events while playing. Our littlest one is starting to join in on the card playing with her own deck. She gets just as excited as the other kids.
