Dinners are llloooooonnnnnnnnggggggggggg at our house. Way. Too. Long. Mostly because we have two children who do not like to eat. They sit at the table, look at their plate, and announce they don't like the food. And so, we sit and sit and sit while small bite after small bite gets chewed into obliviation at a very slow pace.
But, that's not the only reason. We also have a family of sillies. It is hard impossible to make it through a meal without a few of these faces:
As you can see, the kids are not the only ones making the silly faces.
I know I sound a little complain-y about the sllllooooowwww meals ... However, I also know that this is our life now. I also know that it will not be forever. Someday Greg and I will be able to finish a meal in ten minutes. We will sit, eat, and be done. There will be no giggles, no chatter, no silly faces. My kids will not be little forever, so I will strive to enjoy the long meals and delight in their silliness :)
