Addie's Thanksgiving

Not sure if you can see this but it says, "At mealtimes, I'm thankful for . . . " and then Addie's response. I loved it. But what I loved even more was what she said when we talked about it. I told her that Matt and I work really hard at trying to eat dinner together as much as possible to have time together and to talk about each of our days. . . I then told her that I was really proud that she noticed and loved that time too. . . Then I told her that what she didn't know was that lots of families out there either can't or don't take the time to have dinner together each night and that we are really lucky to get to have that as a family. Addie then asked me how other families do dinner time. I told her that they take turns eating or eat at different times. So she said. . .
"Oh! They have to take turns eating because they only have one chair." I absolutely love it that my daughter thinks the only possible reason families wouldn't eat together is because they only have one chair . . . Here's to family dinner time. . . My FAVORITE part of the day (except for bedtime. . . )
