My daughter is 9 months old, and one of the best things about her getting older is that we get to have family meal time together. It is so much fun watching her try eating new things, and it's truly wonderful to enjoy time around the table together.
Certainly. time flies so fast, lets savor and cherish it before they're gone. Thank you for dropping.
STOPThere is so much disconnection in the world today, and so many children aren't getting the necessary attention from their families either. And many kids these days aren't building quality social skills because of how much time they spend on phones and in front of computer screens. So yes! Family dining is a great way to help move us back into the right direction. :)
